- Tortoises will consume 1 – 4% of body weight per day, on a dry matter basis. Feed along with fresh, clean water.
- Feed consumption will vary with environmental temperatures, level of activity, and animal life stage.
- The diet may be fed dry, soaked, or mixed with greens and/or salad. It may be needed to soften the diet with water until animals become acclimated to the diet. If moistened, the diet should be replaced at least twice daily.
- Transition tortoises to Mazuri® Tortoise LS at 1 year of age or when they are able to eat the larger particle size.
- Appropriate supplemental food items should be provided to your reptile. Produce should consist primarily of leafy greens and vegetables low in oxalate like kale, turnip greens, and squash.
- Fruit or high sugar vegetables should be limited to 5% or less of the total diet to minimize GI tract disturbances.
- Always provide plenty of fresh, clean water. Thoroughly wash feed and water bowls on a regular basis. It is always good practice to wash hands thoroughly after feeding and/or handling animals. This diet is not for human consumption.
Storage Conditions
For best results, reseal the bag between uses or store contents of open paper sack in container with sealing lid. Store in a cool (75⁰F/24⁰C or colder), dry (approximately 50% RH) location free from rodents and insects. Do not offer moldy or insect-infested feed to animals as it may result in illness, performance loss or death. Freezing will not harm the diet and may extend freshness. Use within 1 year of bag manufacturing or "Best if Used By" date.
