This feed suits keepers of Hermann's, Horsfield's, leopard, Mediterranean and European pond tortoises, as well as red-eared sliders, who want one base diet that covers mineral balance and fibre without mixing several products. The supplier states it can serve as the sole diet for these species.
Why it matters
- Calcium to phosphorus ratio of 3.5:1 (2.03% calcium, 0.58% phosphorus), with a vitamin and mineral premix included.
- High crude fibre (13%) and low crude protein (9%), which fits herbivorous tortoise diets.
- Glucosamine, chondroitin and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) are added; the supplier links them to cartilage and joint support.
- Omega 6 (1.07%) and omega 3 (0.05%) are declared in the analysis, alongside vitamins A, D3 and E.

What it works with
Moisten the feed before serving, and offer small, fresh portions in the morning and evening, adjusting the amount to the individual tortoise. If the animal is reluctant to try new food, mix the product with a food it already eats. It is intended for tortoise enclosures and can be combined with fresh vegetables and herbs as the keeper's routine requires.
