Recommended feeding: Turtles :
JBL CALCIL can be given as an alternative to other staple feeds. Young turtles which are still growing should be given as much CALCIL as they can eat within approx. 10 minutes once or twice a day. Fully grown turtles may be given one feed of CALCIL 2-3 times a week in the same manner. Land tortoises :
CALCIL, with its relatively high protein content should only be given to land tortoises occasionally as a healthy treat providing a change from their normal vegetable diet. As a general rule: young animals 3-4 times a week, adults once a week. The amount of CALCIL required should be briefly soaked in water before being fed to the animals.
Staple feed for water turtles, Supplementary feed for land tortoises.
