As a keen gardener Im looking to turn my small garden into tortoise friendly food ony plants!

So where do I start? there is an enourmous amount of seeds available when I search on line and what I could really do with is a top ten list. I want to grow from seed to have full control over what chemicals are (not) used on them.

Can anyone suggest a starting point?

Thank you

Firstly remember that leos are grass grazers. If you fill the enclosure with other weeds more suitable for med species then they may well have loose stools and gas problems. Herbiseed do a good mix of seeds specifically aimed at leopards and sulcatas. You contact them direct and make sure you ask for the leopard or African/tropical grass mix Here is a link to the page http://www.herbiseed.com/pets/home/mix.aspx
Hope this helps
