Find a productProduct description
This 170 g cucumber-flavoured food is intended for keepers of land and pond tortoises who want a single product that covers the basic nutritional needs of their animals. It is designed to be used as the sole diet, which reduces the need to combine several feeds and supplements. The formula is built around high fibre, low protein and a controlled calcium-to-phosphorus balance.
Why it matters
- The calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 3.5:1 is stated on the product, and the analysis lists 2.03% calcium and 0.58% phosphorus.
- Crude fibre content of 13% and crude protein of 9% match the high-fibre, low-protein profile the manufacturer specifies.
- The formula includes vitamins A, D3 and E, along with omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids (0.05% and 1.07% respectively, according to the analysis).
- Glucosamine, chondroitin and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) are included; the manufacturer links them to cartilage and joint support.
