Is pre alpin food the same
As mazuri? It's finding difficult to get hold of mazuri in the uk but I have came across this:
Tortoises need a very high in fibre diet which is low in protein and carbohydrates. The new pre alpin foods are excellent. Pre Alpin is a mix of weeds and flowers that are grown in meadows, dried, chopped up and then packaged. The Fibre one has added linseed oil.
The Fibre one comes in a dried loose form. I find that soaking them makes them more palatable and instructions come with it. I have also found that a small amount sprinkled onto your normal fresh food allows them to get used to it. I am feeding a little with their normal foods during the summer months and I will definately be using it in the winter with the tropical tortoises.
