Hikari
Mulberific Delite Hydrating Pellet-Tortoise & Herb Lizards 22.9 oz
Mulberific Delite™
A scientifically formulated diet for the grass eating tortoise that contains all the vitamins and minerals required for proper shell growth, along with unique hydration and water retention properties which provide tortoises with the moisture levels they require for good health. Continued exclusive use will reduce waste odor and stickiness for easy cleanup and maintenance.
Mulberry Leaf Offers Superior Nutrition
- Mulberry leaf offers an optimal nutrient source and significantly improves palatability. The added mulukhiya, Japanese mustard spinach, and minimum grain content further enhance performance and flavor.
Enhances Water Retention
- Offers excellent water absorption and high retention with a sponge-like texture that improves acceptance and natural water intake.
Balanced Nutrition
- Low protein, high fiber and high calcium formula with a 5:1 calcium:phosphorus ratio which is optimal for tortoises.
The Hikari-Germ™ Benefit
- Our proprietary probiotic that supports immune and digestive system health.
Feeding:
For optimum results please soak the pellets in pure, fresh water for at least 5 minutes before feeding. This allows each pellet to completely hydrate and take on the preferred texture. The pellet will become 4X heavier when completely waterlogged. While Mulberific Delite™ is intended to be an exclusive food, many herbivorous tortoises also like wild grasses or vegetables and forest dwellers like fruits, all of which can be fed if desired, but will impact the finely tuned nutrient profile of the diet and reduce it's benefits.
Note: Hikari® Mulberific Delite™ contains higher levels of natural ingredients which may cause a slight change in color from one production lot to another. Rest assured because of our rigid quality standards each package meets our superior nutritional specifications.
