In the wild a large part of mt torts diet is made up of the plants in the colocasia and alocasia families they show up on every plant list as toxic but the mt torts love them and are good for them. Mazuri tortoise diet is also another good food. Some of mine eat it some don't.cactus,tomato,mulberry leaves,cooked sweet potato,squash and cucumber fruit and the plants also,if you can find the yucca root at the grocery store that is not covered in wax get it and plant it, they like the leaves, and the same goes for horseradish root,the horseradish spreads very quick i grow my in pots to control it, just pick some leaves and they grow new ones.if any mushrooms(toad stools) pop up in the yard offer it one,they will dig for fungus.then there is some of the normal things like flower blooms,collards,clover,oranges,kale,dandelion,plantain, (both kinds the weed and the one that looks like a banana) shaved or cooked carrot,and bell pepper,I always used cypress mulch with the youngsters because it holds moisture so well. Good Luck and enjoy you Tortoise,They get better with age. Len
