Description

EarthPro-Optimised52 is a vet checked, all-natural way of feeding tortoises, developed to replicate wild feeding by only using natural ingredients. We do not use any non-natural fillers such as seed husks, nut shells, Maize, soya and flours which are all too common in prepared Tortoise diets.

Tortoises have developed over vast time to be opportunistic feeders that are highly herbivorous. They are an exploring species that will graze as opportunity arises within seasonality. The wild diet of the Mediterranean species consists mainly of leafy vegetation, grasses, roots, tubers, and seasonal flowers. Fruits are taken but rarely, and as a seasonal supplier. A wild diet of this type is very high in fibre, low in protein, sodium and fats. Natural geophagy is also a vital supplier of essential minerals and vitamins, mostly from the B group.

EarthPro-Optimised52 is the very finest, most nutritious pet tortoise diet available. The independently tested nutritional values rather speak for themselves. The food is mixed and pressed in the UK within small batch manufacture to ensure freshness. This is essential as we do not add any artificial preservatives, colours, flavours or scents. This is a fresh dried food that can be rehydrated towards the development needs of your animal.

Available in three pack sizes: 250g, 500g, 1kg
