Hi there!!! I'm new to this forum, I'm from Spain and have a little sulcata called Leonardo. He is 18 months.

So we want to buy him some Mazuri-like food because now with the cold here it's more difficult to find him good grasses and plants. But the Mazuri company doesn't ship to Spain, and the options in eBay and amazon are very few and expensive. We bought him Zoo med grassland and didn't like it. We have found that Monster Diet and Repashy have something tortoise pellets, what do you think of them? Are they nutritionally adequate and balanced?

Here is a pic of the nutritional values of the Repashy one

Thank u in advance!!

I've heard that the Repashy diet is a good one. Also, if you can get the Komodo Dragon food a lot of folks feed that to their tortoises in the UK

Try the Zoo med gourmet food has more of what tortoises love in it along with freeze dried flower petals mine loves it but like what was earlier stated moisten it with warm water. What i tend to do is i soak it in warm water for five minutes then add some spring mix greens on his plate and sprinkle some of the calcium powder on that then i clip some wheat grass from a live plant i have growing then i shake it on top of the other food thinly to cover it all so everything will get eaten took a while to acustom him to it but when it worked it worked great
