This 2 kg dry diet is for keepers who want a single, balanced base feed for tortoises rather than mixing fresh greens and separate supplements. It is designed for the listed Testudo, Trachemys, Stigmochelys and Emys species, and the manufacturer states it can serve as a standalone diet.
Why it matters
- The formula has a calcium to phosphorus ratio of 3.5:1 (analysis: calcium 2.03%, phosphorus 0.58%), which supports the mineral balance tortoises need.
- Crude fibre is 13% and crude protein is 9%, a low-protein, high-fibre profile matching the manufacturer's herbivore-oriented formulation.
- Glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin are included, which the manufacturer links to cartilage and joint support, with glucosamine described as having anti-inflammatory properties.
- Vitamins A, D3 and E, plus omega 3 (0.05%) and omega 6 (1.07%), are part of the formula. The dandelion flavour comes from the dandelion (mlecz) base, with banana, cucumber and flower-and-fruit flavours also listed.
