Give a Tortoise some ProRep Tortoise food and he might just win the race. These sweet and slow herbivores enjoy plodding through a lifetime munching on delicious greens and flowers. Leafy greens and plants have a lot to offer in a tortoise's diet as they carry a lot of healthy nutrients. However, a variable diet is key for these calm creatures; they certainly aren't choosy.

ProReps low protein tortoise food combines a range of deliciously healthy and natural food, from grasses and weeds to fruits and vegetables. It is suitable for all Mediterranean, Horsfields and Sulcata Tortoises.
Natural goodness is retained in this food due to it's larger chunks and cobs, helping to retain as much goodness as possible.

Both work together in harmony, promoting healthy bones and keeping their little home sturdy and strong.
