Can I feed my tortoise the leaves and red flowers of aloe plants?

I have a cactus garden full of the plants and I was wondering if these could be a special treat for him.

Reply:Aloe is fine - tortoises especially enjoy cactus pads as well - and they are very good for them. (Never feed lettuce to your torts - very little nutrition.) Good luck to you and your tort! :)
Reply:Either stick to lettuce to be on the safe side, or ask a vet.puppy teeth
