Love love love
By Aspen on Nov 27, 2020
My sulcata hatchlings LOVE this stuff! By the way, it’s for tortoises and not for turtles. Sliders are turtles and that is why they won’t eat it. Slaughter turtles are carnivores not herbivores. So for the people who left bad reviews because their sliders won’t eat it then you’re just uneducated on the differences.

DO NOT FEED
By James on May 24, 2020
Do NOT give this food to your toroise. There are ingredients, especially preservatives, your toroise should never have in its diet. Not all tortoises eat the same foods. Do research on the native region your tortoise comes from. I guarantee corn and citric acid are not part of their diet. Will they eat it? Absolutely! You have no idea what this does to their natural gut organisms. Not only is this a waste of money its 80% water. Please don't give this garbage to your pet. Most tortoises come from arid and semi-arid areas you'll find in a pet store. You know what you don't find in the Sahel Region of Africa or savannas of Afghanistan, or wherever..preservatives.

Red Foot would not touch this at all
By Sparkles on Jun 24, 2020
My Red Foot (Sparkles) would not touch this at all. I tried 3 times with fresh each time and she refused it. I gave it one star only because of wasting my money.

LittleFoot likes it
By Rosie4919 on Feb 27, 2020
My 3 1/2 year old Redfoot tortoise, LittleFoot is a little picky, it likes fresh veggies well enough, but is a protein junkie....it loves the protein bits it gets for treats and when necessary (trying to avoid pyramiding). Little loves these bits. They smell good (to me,Little and the cats) and Little eagerly eats them. I like having a treat that isn't protein (loves Milkbone Trail mix, with the 1/2"bits my Saint Bernard puppy won't touch) so having a healthier treat alternative is a great thing. Little gets Flukers Tortoise Diet as it's primary kibble, with lots of fresh veggies and little fruit, but I like that this isn't loaded with sugar like a lot of pretend fruit treats/ diets are

Good alternative
By HeatherM7 on Mar 14, 2020
We like feeding our boxie a variety, only because he seems to get bored with foods, so we mix it up. So far he seems to really like these.

Our tortoise loves them. Just sprinkle a few on top of their food. One container lasts a long time.
