Feed tortoises approximately 1-4% of body weight per day. This diet should be provided to tortoises at 80% or more of their daily intake. Feed consumption will vary with environmental temperatures, level of activity and animal lifestage. It is not necessary to moisten pellets with water. However, soaking the product may help to acclimate tortoises to the diet. Feed with good quality grass hay. If desired, feed fresh fruits and vegetables. Use at most 5% fruit and 20% vegetables by weight of total diet. Always provide animal with plenty of fresh, clean water. Proper humidity levels are also critical for health and proper growth of herbivores.
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.

Questions
When I feed my turtles, the water turns brown quite quickly. Will this food act different?
- I donāt know if you meant to ask this question about the āAquaticā Mazuri TURTLE foodā¦? This food is specifically meant for land dwelling TORTOISES, not turtles who mainly live in water. You can moisten the tortoise food with water to make it softer and easier for them to eat. But, if you try to feed your aquatic turtles with this food, it will disintegrate eventually and turn the water brown. If you truly have aquatic turtles, they have different nutritional requirements and you need the AQUATIC mazuri diet. Those pellets are designed to float in water, so they shouldnāt turn your water brown. Hope this helps.Ā
Helpful?
Is this the Mazuri Tortoise Diet or Mazuri Tortoise Diet LS?
- The label clearly states that it is LS, which in our opinion, is superior to the regular diet. Our tortoise loves it!
