Cosy Tortoises "Grow Your Own" Tortoise Food Seed Mixes

When you buy your "Grow Your Own" Tortoise Food seed mixtures from Cosy Tortoises you are providing your tortoises with a good balance of vitamins, nutrients and minerals. Variety is also the key to avoid tortoises being dependant on one type of food which can lead to health problems and poor growth. Our seed mixtures can provide a natural diet for tortoises. These seeds have been carefully selected and are easy to grow in your garden, in pots or trays. The wildflower selection has been carefully selected to ensure there are no plants that are toxic to humans or tortoises alike. They can all be found growing wild in the typical english countryside. It is wise to note that not everything found wild is safe to eat for tortoises or humans so this is by far the safer option.

Mega Mix 30 Wildflower seeds 5g, 10g, 15g, 20g.

The best way to provide variety for your tortoises. No grass seed so use this to supplement a lawn your established tortoise food corner. The best way is to start them off as plugs and plant out when around 15 cm high after cutting back your established food corner to around 10 cm high.
