Best Answer

Many species of low growing plants, grasses and legumes. Also they like most fruits, lettuce, carrots and etc. They will pretty much eat anything that a cow likes, with the possible exception of grains or dried hay, as most of the tortoise's water intake comes from its food. They are rarely seen actually drinking water from a ditch or pond, but they will drink water that they dam up in their burrows during rainstorms.
