🌿 Burmese Star Tortoise Diet & Feeding Guide

This species is an herbivore through and through, thriving on dry grasses, high-fiber greens, and the occasional treat. Stick to a low-protein, calcium-rich diet and you’ll raise a healthy, long-living tortoise.

🥗 Ideal Feeding Breakdown:

• Staples: Dandelion greens, collard, mustard, hibiscus leaves

• Fibrous Additions: Orchard grass, timothy hay, cactus pads (nopales)

• Occasional Treats: Pumpkin, squash, and shredded carrots

• Calcium Supplementation: 3x per week with D3 if no natural sunlight

• Water Access: Shallow dish for soaking + drinking

🌤️ Outdoor grazing in safe areas with edible weeds is excellent enrichment.
