DESCRIPTION

Arcadia EarthPro-Optimised52 is a brand new, vet checked, all-natural way of feeding tortoises, developed to replicate wild feeding by only using natural ingredients. We use no non-natural fillers such as seed husks, nut shells, Maize, soya and flours which are all too common in prepared Tortoise diets. A wild diet of this type is very high in fibre, low in protein, sodium and fats. Natural geophagy is also a vital supplier of essential minerals and vitamins, mostly from the B group.If we wish to see our companion Tortoises live a long and fruitful life it is essential that we feed them correctly. Fillers such a nut shells, husks and middling's offer no nutritional value of note and are used as a very cheap source of Fibre. This is a seasonal grow and plant species found in our mix through the seasons can actually reach 60 grasses and herbs per mix. To this base mix of whole plant nutrition, we add a further 10 species of plant matter which include leavesfrom strawberry, blackberry and raspberry plants. Plantain, nettle, dandelions, marigolds and roses are also added into the mix. In this way we fill the nutritional requirements of Mediterranean species by using a barrage of natural ingredients, many of which are found in the wild habitats of these incredible species.

Key Benefits:

Our all-natural, wild-like nutrition is carefully formulated to provide optimal benefits.

We ensure that no waste products such as nut shells, maize, sunflower seed husks, or soya bean husks are used as fillers.

With the guidance of a zoo vet, our product is developed to meet the highest standards.

We take pride in the fact that our formula contains no artificial colors, flavors, scents, or preservatives. Additionally, we have added Bee Pollen, ReVitaliseD3, and a Probiotic to enhance its nutritional value.

Our highly palatable and low waste compressed food can be fed as a hydrated mulch or dry.

The recommended feedingguidelines suggest 1-2 tiles per day for every 400g of body weight.

This product has been specifically developed with Mediterranean species in mind. It consists of an average minimum grass and herb mix comprising 52 EU grown species, as well as additional flowers, petals, and whole leaf plants.

Unlike other options in the market, our product does not include chinchilla dust to dry out the digestive tract.

It can constitute up to 70% of the total diet, and seasonal fresh salads, flowers, weeds, and herbs can be added as they become available.

Our formula is carefully pressed into a mix, ensuring its integrity, rather than being a baked extruded pellet.

Suitable for all life stages.

Nutritional Option: To add in further nutritional value we have added finely milled Bee Pollen which is vitamin, mineral and amino acid positive, a real superfood. We have also added our full-spectrum Carotenoid complex and our full-spectrum mineral and vitamin complex âReVitaliseD3â. This will provide all of the minerals available in the wild diet and in natural balance, with low levels of A, D3 and E suitable for modern reptile care. Optimised52 is high in Calcium, low in phosphorus and with added Magnesium for optimal mineral storage and wellbeing. We have also included our best selling flower based topper within every pack, EarthPro-FlowerBoost. EarthPro-FlowerBoost will add even more variety to the mix and plenty of highly visible colour.
Health Consideration: Fibre is essential within Tortoise diets as this not only provides direct nutrition, but it also works as a prebiotic in the digestive system. This provides a home from which the beneficial live bacterial cultures can grow and live and aid with ongoing digestion, assimilation and use. Having a fully functioning probiotic system living within the gut is also essential for the health and function of the immune system. Optimised52 uses no by-product or cheap fillers. The Fibre content is high and totally whole plant-derived. We also add a natural paraprobiotic to Optimised52 to boost beneficial cultures naturally within the digestive system. EarthPro-Optimsed52 is high in fibre at 25.7%, low in protein at just 10% and low in fats and sodium.
