:: YaY somone i agree with! You don't see Mazuri tortoise chow laying around in the desert do you? It seems to me like a lazy way of dealing with your torts.

:
:I use it as a supliment for my redfoot. I feel its better to do that and be "Lazy" then to give him the wrong amounts of foods. I'm still learning how to balance a diet, and until I get it right I'm gonna be lazy and give him Mazuri just to be safe.

:Tegan


Tegan its much safer for a redfoot because, a redfoot requires protein in its diet. In fact I plan to feed my redfoots mazuri as soon as I get some redfoots. So don't feel lazy feel glad that you are feeding a well balanced diet to them. Me and a friend who owns 250 turts/torts agree its perfectly ok for omniovorus torts.
