- Offer your tortoise free access to its Rep-Cal food every day, providing enough food so it can leave a little.
- May be feed moistened in water or fruit juice.
- Dark leafy greens and fresh fruit can be added occasionally.
- Discard moistened food daily.
- Provide adequate fresh water daily, in a clean container.
-
When switching from Rep-Cal Tortoise Food from another diet, allow 8-10 days for the transition. Mix increasing amounts of Rep-Cal Tortoise Food with less of the previous food until your tortoise is only eating the Rep-Cal food.
- Feed every morning: Offer slightly more food than your tortoise can eat in a day, and allow your pet access to its food for the entire daylight period. Be sure to empty and clean the dish at the end of each day.
- Feed on a plate or other flat surface: We recommend a plate or other clean, flat surface because tortoises have difficulty picking up food from deep bowls.
- Have water available at all times: Your tortoise should have access at all times to a shallow bowl containing fresh, clean water. Also, your tortoise needs to be soaked in shallow warm water: two times weekly for adults; three to four times weekly for juveniles.
- Pellets can be moistened in water or fruit juice before feeding: Some tortoises find that the softer soaked pellets are easier to pick up.

This is great

Thomas needed this!
By Thomas1338 on May 6, 2020
This food is part of Thomas the Tortoise's regular diet. We weren't able to get it online where we usually buy it. Chewy came through for us! From now on we will be ordering RepCal Tortoise Food from Chewy.

Great supplement
By kathleen on May 3, 2020
I have 2 captive hatched California desert tortoises. It was recommended to me by my vet to feed Mazuri, but my guys didn't like it. They love this one! I feed several times a week to supplement their fresh greens.

My Russian is so picky, she loves this food! The other order I placed the pebbles were too tiny, she refused to eat it! This will save me money & time!

Picky eater loves this!
By SueL on Nov 28, 2019
My 20 year old turtle is a very picky eater. She has loved this for years. I think she likes the fruits in it because she will not eat the plain one.

Great tortoise food
By Yosemite on Aug 15, 2019
Our tortoise loves this food. He has been eating it for several years along with broccoli. Chewy.com is the greatest.

My Russian loves it
By sally on Mar 16, 2019
I purchased this for my Russian tortoise Lilly. I was worrying that she wasn't getting complete nutrition from her daily greens so I added this. I keep a small bowl available at all times and she eats it right up.

My tortoises love it
By Snakergirl on Jan 22, 2019
I feed this food, along with the recommended grasses and vegetables, to my 3 year old torts. They love this food so much that they can’t wait when I refill the dish- they make their way over and chow down before I even get my hand out of their habitat. I haven’t had any problems with their digestion or growth, so I’ll keep feeding them their fave as long as we have no problems.;)

Not for my Torty..
By Nikki on Mar 9, 2019
My Russian tortoise won't even touch it... I tried to moisten it with water, still won't go near it. Oh well, at least I didn't buy a big jar of it.
