These are moist, preserved grasshoppers convenient for feeding to any insect-eating reptile. They don’t move (obviously), so picky eaters may not like them as much as live insects. And unless you have a lot of turtles (or other reptiles that also like them), you’re going to have left-overs. But the resealable can is easy to store. Just make sure you refrigerate them, or they’ll mold pretty quickly.
Although called forest tortoise food, this all-natural, pelleted food is also good for box turtles. The food has lots of fiber and plant materials, enjoyed by all kinds of tortoises and turtles. But it’s not a complete food for box turtles. They need more protein than this food provides. Even so, this food can be a nutritious part of your box turtle’s varied diet (you are feeding her a varied diet, right?).
This all-natural box turtle food is a complete food for your box turtle. It has no added colors or preservatives. What it does have is all the fiber, protein and other nutrients your pet needs to stay healthy and maintain proper bone and shell strength. It also has fruits (papaya and mango) that boxies love. It’s a dry, pelleted food that should be mixed with water to feed.
