Ingredients
Tortoises are herbivorous animals and require a diet consisting of plant-based food sources to thrive. This food offers your tortoise their favorite fruits, vegetables and grasses such as dandelion greens and yucca that provide the proper balance of nutrition required for good health; plus long stem fibers to mimic natural plant materials found in its habitat. Fortified with vitamins and minerals for healthful activity and growth support – specifically designed for aquatic turtles with shell lengths of two inches or greater and contains no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives!
Wetted food creates a mash that mimics the diet of captive box turtles and should be fed free-choice for best results. You may add fresh greens, fruit or other food sources for variety in their diet. For best results, wet the food before offering and replace regularly for optimal results.
