Dry food available to order
DESCRIPTION:
The diet of wild tortoises is always determined by the vegetation in their natural habitat. In their
original environment the actual vegetation period is usually limited to a short time followed by
dryness and heat from midsummer to fall. The crude fibre content of the plants is reatively low
and the protein content quite high during springtime. During summer herbs and grasses will
"age".The crude fibre content therefore increases in midsummer while the protein content
strongly decreases.
To meet the requirements of the organism the diet of pet tortoises should also be adjusted to the
respective season.
The protein content of PRE ALPIN Testudo is extremely low. It contains selected grasses with a
very low protein content and, at the same time, a very high crude fibre content. The reduced
protein supply unburdens particularly liver and kidneys and promotes the detoxification of the
body.
When fresh plant food is fed PRE ALPIN Testudo is an ideal supplement. PRE ALPIN Testudo is
particularly recommendable during the transitional time and especially before the beginning of the
winter torpor.
