Tortoise ate chives

I somehow thought I read that these were ok, but must have gotten mixed up. He had a small plant in his enclosure and definitely ate it. This was about 3-4 weeks ago. Coincides with the start of him being less active for sure. Healthy appearance otherwise. Oh god. Will he be alright. What does the toxicity do exactly?

Chives are just green onions. Not harmful.

I had the same problem with something like this, wild carrot I had it with people said one thing and the tortoise table says another!

Yes I think Yvonne said they can be over cautious with some things so I suppose they are only a guide but I do tend to err on the side of caution anyway.
