For best health, tortoises need a diet that is very low in protein and high in fiber. Rep-Cal Tortoise Food is formulated to ensure proper health by providing complete and balanced nutrition appropriate to tortoises' specific needs.
Rep-Cal Tortoise Food has been tested successfully for tortoises by reptile veterinarians. This diet contains natural plant and fruit ingredients, with the complete daily nutrition they need, including optimal levels of vitamins and minerals like calcium and Vitamin D3. In addition, Rep-Cal Tortoise Food contains apple fiber to maintain an efficient bowel and papaya, mango, and strawberries to create an excellent taste.
It is best practice to offer fresh greens as the majority of your tortoise's diet. However, well-balanced prepared diets like Rep-Cal Tortoise Food add essential variety to their nutrition and are good to have on hand as a backup in case of emergency.
Instructions for Use:
Portion out as many pellets as your tortoise will eat in about 8 hours. Moisten pellets in water, or use 100% fruit juice if you need to make Rep-Cal Tortoise Food more tempting. Discard uneaten food at the end of the day.
If offering Rep-Cal Tortoise Food dry, make sure fresh water is provided, as dry diets can have a dehydrating effect.
