Rhubarb

 Do not Feed
  • Common Name: Rhubarb
  • Latin Name: Rheum spp.
  • Family Name: Polygonaceae
This plant has high concentrations of oxalic acid, which binds with calcium and prevents its uptake,  as well as glycosides, which can be very damaging to the heart, liver and kidneys, and so Rhubarb should never be fed to tortoises.
