Storage
Turtles require a diverse diet in order to remain in good health, from plants, animal-based foods and insects to live prey. To prevent vitamin A deficiency, feed them foods rich in the nutrient such as kale, squash and carrots regularly in their tank – any uneaten food may breed bacteria and cause illness in your turtle.
Mazuri’s roots began at a zoo, offering zoo professionals the feeding and nutritional products necessary to care for exotic pets. Utilizing their scientific expertise and experience, their scientists develop species-appropriate pet foods with complete nutritional profiles designed especially for your animal companions.
