common geranium
I have read the thread about weeds and i was wondering if common geraniums are safe for torts to eat as i has loads in the garden all year round.

here is a picture of the geranium i mean it is a weed type not the ones you would buy at a garden centre they also grow in our local meadow so that is why i thought they may be okay.

They are fine in enclosures so long as your torts do not take a strong liking to them but I would not feed them deliberately, as in herbal medicine, they are diuretic and this would not be good for their kidneys long term. Hope this helps
