Depending on the species their diet should consist of grasses, dandelions, clover etc, from your lawn with additional fruit and vegetables daily. It is also advisable to add vitamin powder to their food weekly to prevent dietary deficiencies. Always make sure that your tortoise is regularly wormed and has an annual health check. Just before hibernation is a good time as we can ensure they are in peak condition. It is always worth bearing in mind that tortoises generally live in excess of 50 years and require a long-term commitment.
