This dry diet is intended for keepers of land and semi-aquatic chelonians who want a single base food with a defined calcium-to-phosphorus ratio and added joint-support compounds. The manufacturer states it can serve as the main diet for the listed species, so it can replace a mix of separately bought ingredients.
Why it matters
- Calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 3.5:1, with calcium at 2.03% and phosphorus at 0.58%.
- Crude fibre at 13% and crude protein at 9%, a combination that suits a high-fibre, low-protein diet.
- Contains glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin, which the manufacturer links to cartilage and joint support.
- Supplies vitamins A, D3 and E along with omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, with omega-6 at 1.07% and omega-3 at 0.05%.

What it works with
The product is listed for Hermann's tortoise (Testudo hermanni), red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans), Horsfield's tortoise (Testudo horsfieldii), leopard tortoise (Stigmochelys pardalis, listed as Stigmochelys Geochelone) and European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis). The manufacturer recommends moistening the food before feeding, offering small fresh portions morning and evening, and mixing it with a familiar food when introducing it, since some animals are slow to accept new diets.
