I read on turtlecafe.com in the edible plant list that sulcatas can have maple leaves, but it listed "acer saccharum" specificly. Now I know that is the "suger maple", but I am not sure that I can really tell the difference. Are all maples ok?
Dozer has a great diet of grasses,dandilion, chicory, daylily, nipplewort, strawberry leaves,milk thistle and hay of couse just metion a few. I just like having more options. By the way Dozer is just a baby and I have only had him/her for 2 months. My brain hurts from all the info so far, but as with parenting we are constantly learning!

Thank you so much for you time and advice,

Thanks,

Yes Maple leaves are edible for tortoises but do contain higher amounts of sugar so should be fed sparingly.

Do you have Mulberry Trees? Mine really enjoy those leaves.
