Sounds good but add a little more variety. Try timothy and bermuda hays. Try clipping grass/weeds from outside(especially dandelion). In the winter I supplement with dandelion, chicory, endive, turnip and raddichio every other day. Oxbow hay also has a botanical hay that mine love. I also give cactus(from Carolina Pet Supply)once a week and flowers when I can get them. See africantortoise.com for edible/toxic plants.
