Treat your tortoises with healthy food
Tortoises are gourmets and certainly won’t eat everything. However they do enjoy some foods they shouldn’t eat at all. Tomatoes, citrus fruit and flesh are unsuitable. The composition and enrichment with healthy vegetables of JBL PROTERRA VEGABIL was developed in cooperation with Dr. Petra Kölle at the University in Munich. The species-appropriate mix of vegetables and other plant components is important. Vegetables, fruits and blossoms should only be added to the basic plant food in the right proportions, as is done correctly and scientifically in the JBL PROTERRA range with HERBIL, VEGABIL, FRUCTIL and FLORSIL.
With JBL PROTERRA VEGABIL your tortoises receive an ideal complete food. Of course you can also collect green plant food and herbs to supplement their basic nutrition in summer. The other JBL PROTERRA foods HERBIL, FRUCTIL and FLORSIL are an ideal and species-appropriate supplement to JBL PROTERRA VEGABIL. Tortoises like variety.
Turtle species for which this food is ideal (examples):
- Red-footed tortoise
- Star tortoise
- Leopard tortoise
- Marginated tortoise
- Hermann's tortoise
- Spur-thighed tortoise
- African spurred tortoise
- Four-clawed tortoise
JBL expeditions often visit turtle habitats, be it in the deserts or, even more frequently, in the wetlands of the tropics. The observations of their way of life and eating habits are incorporated into the development of the JBL foods. This information directly from the wild is extremely valuable, as it would otherwise hardly be available.
The aim should always be to care for the animals in a species-appropriate way and ideally to provide for offspring in order to reduce the removal of species from the wild. Although breeding is not absolutely necessary for some species, as the species relevant to the trade come from offspring or are not endangered, JBL nevertheless considers it desirable to breed pets.
