Fruit and Flower Complete Tortoise Diet 170g - Komodo (KM)(45331)
The Mediterranean tortoises and the Horsfield’s or Russian Tortoise are the most popular pet tortoises in the UK.
They have specific requirements that are different to other species of tortoises such as the Red Footed Tortoise or the African Spurred Tortoise.
Komodo Tortoise Diet has been holistically formulated to provide a complete food for these popular European species.
The diet is high in fibre and low in protein.
It is formulated to have a calcium to phosphorus ratio of 3.5:1.
Komodo Diet has been extensively trialed and tested to find the variety of tastes that tortoises love.
It is available as a blend or in the 3 distinct flavours.
All Komodo foods are sourced locally and produced in the United Kingdom to reduce product miles and environmental impact.
Tortoises will require good UVB lighting or additional oral supplementation of vitamin D3 to enable their bodies to make use of the calcium in their diet.
Why is it important to know the Calcium - Phosphorus Ratio?
If there is an imbalance or excess of phosphorus in the diet the animal cannot take up the available calcium. Long term this would cause health problems and could result in Metabolic Bone Disease.
