Exo Terra Tortoise Adult is a tortoise diet formulated to ensure proper nutritional levels for growth and long-term health. The formula provides a complete and balanced diet for adult tortoises and adult box turtles. All ingredients have been carefully selected for their quality and digestibility and no artificial colouring or flavor is added.
Exo Terra Tortoise Adult is fortified with optimal levels of vitamins, minerals and amino acids so no other food or supplements are required.

Improved availability of nutrients
Greater digestibility and palatability
Stays fresh longer!
Protected from light
Zipper bag for extended shelf-life after opening
Locked-in aromas and flavour
Environmentally friendly packaging

The line of Exo Terra extruded pellet foods were developed with digestibility and optimal species specific nutrition in mind. The foods are packed in non-transparent bags to keep the food fresh and lock in the natural aromas and flavours.
The 'Nutrition Protect' bag is more economical and environmentally friendly (less waste) than bulky plastic containers and it shields the foods from light which prevents vitamins and nutrients from deteriorating.

Extruded Food

Extrusion is a process where friction and pressure is combined within an extruder barrel to create extreme heat. The heat is then used to rapidly cook and preserve the proteins and carbohydrate ingredients. This process improves the availability of these nutrients to reptiles and increases the digestivity and ensures palatability.

Nutrition Protection

A number of nutrients are subject to deterioration when exposed to light. The 'Nutrition Protect' bag prevents light from penetrating, maintaining the nutritional value of the food at its maximum level. All vitamin B's, including Folic Acid (leafy greens) are destroyed after light exposure within a week, e.g. when packed in a plastic transparent container. Light will also discolour the food items, promote the deterioration of the binders and activate enzymes prematurely. The "Nutrition Protect" bag also locks in aromas and flavours.
The zipper allows storage after opening with a reduced air-gap, prolonging the food's nutritional values and keeping the flavour and aroma inside.
All bags are CO2 flushed, preventing contamination with harmful bugs.

Untitled Review by carol wakano

Quality

We found a young tortoise in our yard and didn't know what to feed him. He liked iceberg lettuce, but I knew it did not have enough nutrients, so I tried a 10.5 oz bag of Exo Terra Adult tortoise food, which I found at Petsmart (unfortunately they no longer carry it).
The pellets need to be moistened with water for easier eating, but he absolutely loves them! I feed him a small handful every day when the weather warms up and supplement with various chopped greens and bananas. He can easily thrive eating only the pellets, but I like to give him a little variety. (Posted on 3/17/11)
