Yes, land tortoises can eat water hyacinth, but it should be given in moderation. While it's not toxic, water hyacinth is high in water content and low in essential nutrients, which may not provide a balanced diet for tortoises. It's important to offer a varied diet that includes other leafy greens and vegetables to ensure they receive adequate nutrition. Always ensure that any plant material is free from pesticides or contaminants before feeding it to your tortoise.
