T-Rex Dry Tortoise Formula

I've got two South African Leopard tortoises and they love these little 'rainbow drops'! .....HOWEVER..... There is a lot of waste though with them and so do actually work out fairly expensive. The manufacturer says to serve moistened - my tortoises both REFUSE to eat them moist (aka mushed!!) I gave some to a friend to try with her tortoises and they refused to eat the mush also!

They are tiny little pellets - only about 4mm and hard, so when they get knocked off the feeding platter and into the ground substrate ...  Read the complete review

T-Rex Dry Tortoise Formula is an excellent alternative meal for any kind of tortoise.

The food comes in three different sizes but I always used to go for the smallest size because a pot does go a really long way. My tortoise ...  Read the complete review

t rex dry tortoise formula is a dry pellet food ideal for feeding to all tortoises as there main diet, it is made from 100% vegetable matter, low in fat, high in fibre. This is a realy convienient food to feed to your tortoises as you can simply just tip it onto a plate streight from the tub dry and let them eat it that way, all my babies are willing to do this but a finicy adult that is used to fresh food might take a little persuading, i usually moisten the food a little or mix with a little fresh veg to encourage them to begin eating it but once they have you will find that they prefer this to any other food. If fed dry there is very little mess ...  Read the complete review
