Tortoises can eat potato skins in small amounts, but it's not recommended as a regular part of their diet. Raw potato skins contain solanine, a toxic compound that can be harmful to tortoises if consumed in large quantities. It's best to focus on a varied diet of leafy greens, vegetables, and limited fruits to ensure their health. Always consult a veterinarian for specific dietary advice for your tortoise.
