Description
All-in-one super food that includes all the foods, vitamins, and
minerals your tortoise needs. This all-natural food is made with
human-grade ingredients and completes the nutritional value of vegetables.
Tortoise Dust
was developed and designed to utilize balanced, natural, whole
foods as its primary ingredients so that
it can be fed without
reserve. The VF foods are dusts designed to be mixed with green leafy
vegetables in a "shake and bake" fashion. The dust is a
whole, complete and balanced food and provides much more nutritional
value than the vegetables they are dusted on. The greens basically
become the delivery system for the dust. It is designed not to balance
the greens as the ICB does the cricket, but to be a complete food
that could even be used with iceberg lettuce to provide complete
nutrition for your animal. It allows the keeper to use "whatever
greens are in the fridge" and makes it easier for most people
to provide balanced nutrition for their reptiles. It can be dusted
on greens in liberal amounts. It can also be mixed with water and
made into a "dressing" that can be "tossed" into
greens as in making a Caesar's Salad.
This is not a supplement, but a balanced diet that satisfies all
of your tortoise's nutritional requirements. It is designed to be
used in combination with green leafy vegetables. When used with every
feeding, no additional supplementation is necessary.
Feeding Directions
Rinse
vegetables and either sprinkle Tortoise Dust over the top liberally,
or put
vegetables in a plastic bag or container
along
with Tortoise Dust and mix in a "shake and bake" manner.
Tortoise Dust is a complete food and is designed to be used at
every feeding. The more you use it the better.
