Russian tortoise food help please?

Question

I need to kknow the best plants to feed my russian tortoise. Can he eat impatiens? Can he eat iceburg lettuce?

Answer 1

please see below care sheet for Russian Tortoise.  You should have done all your homework before getting a tortoise.  if you do not take care of your tortoise properly, you will kill it.  the choice is yours.

Answer 2

I mainly feed mine greens, such as collard greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, etc. Iceberg lettuce is no good, but you can give them romaine. Mine get greens every day, but I'll add other things every other day or so such as squash, carrots, and other veggies. I also keep timothy hay in their enclosure which they eat for their fiber. And I also add a little calcium powder now and then.

Answer 3

iceburg is a bad thing. its useless.

  give him romain,red leaf lettus,carrots strawberrys but not the tops. fig leafs, just make sure all are cut up and carrots or diced. good luck.
