Southern oak leave tree toxic?

[Johnnny]

I just plant a southern oak tree on my back yard with out searching if its toxic to my sulcatas tortoises does any one know?

All oak leaves are toxic when green. They lose some of their toxicity when they turn brown and fall off. Most of the time tortoises won't eat oak leaves, but it is a risk.

I highly recommend fruitless mulberry. Full shade and lots of good food in summer, full sun in winter.
