\"Zoo<\/a>
\nZoo Med’s Turtle Bone is a natural calcium source that lets your turtle get extra calcium as needed. It’s cuttlebone (from the cuttle fish, which is actually a squid), so there’s nothing unnatural or dangerous in it. It also helps keep his beak trimmed, because the rough surface wears the beak down as your pet eats it. It floats, so it works for both land and water turtles.<\/p>\n

You get 2 cuttlebones in each pack.<\/p>\n

Does Your Box Turtle Really Need This?<\/h2>\n

Strictly speaking, no. At least not as long as she’s getting plenty of calcium in her diet, either from food or calcium supplements sprinkled on the food.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, if you regularly forget to add calcium, or she’s not fond of calcium-rich foods, this can be a good addition.<\/p>\n
