They are not. Be patient. T-rex is marketing a Mazuri equivelent that should be on the UK market in a few weeks. It is identical to the Mazuri diet.
Keep in mind that Mazuri is mainly marketed for zoos. They tried to get into the Retail end of the market but it obviously was not profitable. For Uros... it will work as well considerig they have a very similar diet to a tortoise. I use the Mazuri Tortoise diet on Leachianus also... fantastic results. Quote:

Sorry but why do you want to use them?
This is where me and Ed disagree greatly, pellets have not been tested properly and got knows what damage they are doing to a tortoises internal organs. Weeds weeds weeds are the only way to go. God id love to use pellets i have to find a carrier bag full of weeds every day to feed 43 tortoises it would be so much easier, but they are just so unatural.

The Mazuri diet has been tested extensively and has been in use for well over 25 years... yea... I know... that's a drop in the bucket in tortoise years but it is still a long enough time that if there was a problem there would be a hint of that problem by now.
There is more chance of damage caused from a nutritional imbalance from feeding weeds than this diet. If a keeper can't get over the mindset of feeding this diet that's the keepers problem. Quote:
