HabiStat Tortoise Food is formulated with all natural ingredients including calcium and vitamin D3. This high fibre, low protein, calcium rich feed should be used as part of a varied and balanced diet including plenty of fresh leaves and plants.
Similar to the banana flavoured variety, Fruit & Flower also has a fruity smell and is irresistible to many tortoise species. It is appreciated by the Mediterranean Tortoise species (Hermann’s, Marginated, etc) as well as tropical species such as Red Foots, which would naturally have a higher level of fruit in their diet. However despite it’s fruity smell this food is relatively low in sugar and therefore makes a great food for all species. For stubborn European animals this can be used as a step between the banana and more natural meadow mix diet.
We have found that other herbivorous reptiles, such as Iguanas, will also enjoy this food.
To feed this diet should be wet with a small amount of water until soft. Once the jar is open store in a cool, dry place; only wet prior to being offered to the animals. Tortoise are grazers and will keep returning during the day to the food source provided for them. Do not worry if they do not eat all of the food during their first sitting, instead monitor their daily intake. Make sure fresh water is always available for the tortoise to drink as contrary to popular belief tortoise do drink water.
