I have 5 sulcatas a 30lb, 20lb, 15lb, 7lb, and 5lb-er(Give or take a little).
As for food. Bi-weekly, I feed them dandelions, endive, escarole, turnip greens, collard greens, and romaine. I also drop some yellow squash and pumpkin when its in season (seedless of course). I also have a container of mazuri that I fill one a week (its one of those self-refilling ones) so that they can eat it when they want it or not (and believe it or not, they ration it pretty well). I also make sure they have orchard grass hay available at all times. Being that its winter, I only soak them once to twice a week.
During the summer they are in their outdoor enclosure and eat grasses (burmuda, orchard grass, timothy, crab grass, etc). They also love roses, hibiscus, rose of sharron, and mulberrys.
Check out turtlecafe.com for some plant info.
Hope this helps
