Introducing Zoo Med’s Gourmet Box Turtle Food, a carefully crafted blend designed to meet the unique nutritional needs of omnivorous box turtles. This premium food is specially formulated to provide a balanced diet, ensuring your pet box turtle receives the essential nutrients for optimal growth and overall health.

Young box turtles, in their rapid growth phase, require plenty of protein from meat and insects. As they mature, their diet gradually shifts towards more plant-based foods, yet they remain highly omnivorous throughout their lives. Zoo Med’s Gourmet Box Turtle Food takes this natural dietary evolution into account, offering a varied and enriching mix to keep your pet engaged and vibrant.

Description

With over 30 years of experience researching reptile nutrition, Zoo Med has developed a top-quality product fortified with essential vitamins and minerals. This gourmet food boasts a delectable combination of dried mealworms, mushrooms, and strawberries, catering to your turtle’s taste buds and providing them with a delightful and nutritious feast.

To serve, simply moisten the food with water and let it sit for 3-5 minutes, creating a mouthwatering mash that your box turtle will relish. For an easy transition, mix the moistened Gourmet Box Turtle Food with your pet’s current diet, slowly reducing the amount of the old food until the switch is complete.

Zoo Med’s commitment to natural ingredients is evident, as this food contains no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. Instead, it features organic soybean meal, suncured alfalfa meal, and other wholesome components, creating a healthy and balanced diet for your cherished reptile companion.

Ensuring your pet box turtle’s diet is varied is essential for their mental and physical well-being. While fresh food should be the primary component, prepared diets like Zoo Med’s Gourmet Box Turtle Food add crucial diversity to their nutrition and can serve as a valuable backup option during emergencies.
