This food is intended for keepers of Mediterranean and other land tortoises who want a complete diet instead of building each meal from separate vegetables and supplements. The dandelion-flavoured mix combines herbs, fruit and vegetables with added vitamins and minerals, and the manufacturer states that it can serve as the sole diet for a tortoise.
Why it matters
- Balanced mineral profile: the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio is 3.5:1, with 2.03% calcium and 0.58% phosphorus in the analysis.
- High fiber, low protein: crude fiber is 13% and crude protein is 9%, which matches the herbivorous diet these species need.
- Joint-support ingredients: the formula includes glucosamine, chondroitin and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), which the manufacturer links to cartilage and joint function.
- Fat and omega content: the analysis lists 4% fat, 1.07% omega 6 and 0.05% omega 3, alongside vitamins A, D3 and E.

What it works with
The manufacturer lists the food for Testudo hermanni, Trachemys scripta elegans, Testudo horsfieldii, Stigmochelys (Geochelone) pardalis, Emys orbicularis and Testudo graeca. Preparation is simple: moisten the food before serving, then offer small fresh portions morning and evening, adjusting the amount to the individual tortoise. Because some tortoises are slow to accept new food, the manufacturer suggests mixing it with foods the animal already eats at first.
