Tortoises should not eat pinks (Dianthus spp.) or carnations (Dianthus caryophyllus) as these plants can be toxic to them. While some tortoises may nibble on ornamental flowers, it's best to stick to safe and natural foods like grasses, leafy greens, and certain vegetables. Always ensure that any plants offered to tortoises are free from pesticides and chemicals. If in doubt, consult a veterinarian or a tortoise care expert.
