IMPORTANT: Most species of animals are naturally wary of new food. When switching to foods from another diet, change should be gradual to avoid prolonged periods of low food intake and digestive upset. Changing to Rep-Cal Foods is easy, because each diet is formulated for palatability and digestibility as well as for superior nutrition. Rep-Cal Foods can be fed moistened in water or fruit juice for reptiles that prefer a softer pellet.

Feeding Guidelines: 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.
