we use the dried tortoise pellets in addition to dried grasses etc. You just soak them for a while to soften up. Does anyone know where you can get them wholesale as I get through loads and end up paying alot for the ones in little cartons as I have large sulcatas

The pellet fod is a big NO NO full of protein. I have some deformed rehomers with me now due to being fed these things. You have to think wild would they eat pellets in the wild? No. please only feed weeds and grasses.
