    Hi, I just got my Leopard Tortoises yesterday. I was just wondering what kind of meat I could feed to my Leopard Tortoises. They're still a baby.. So I don't know if I feed them meat once a week, or wait untill they're an adult. I heard that baby tortoises eat more meat than adults. Is that true? Or am I talking about water turtles?

    Hi there! Leopard torts are herbivores and should primarily be fed a mixture of greens, hays, and grasses. They can the occasional treat of a worm or cricket, but overall their diet should contain more fiber than protein. A good food to try in between greens is Mazuri Tortoise Food. My girls just love it! :mrgreen:
