Always moisten the pellets with a splash of fresh water prior to feeding, allowing them to soak for a few minutes; this softens the food and maximizes the natural cucumber aroma to stimulate a healthy appetite. You can experiment with the level of saturation to find exactly how wet your pet prefers their meal. For stubborn or reluctant tortoises, initially blend the softened Komodo pellets with familiar fresh foods like dandelions or watercress. Remove any uneaten damp food daily and ensure fresh drinking water is always accessible. Pair this diet with high quality UVB lighting to allow your pet to process the dietary calcium properly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trusty Pets","offers":[{"title":"0.17kg","offer_id":60534216589646,"sku":"KFT\/C170","price":6.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"2kg","offer_id":60534216622414,"sku":"KFT\/C2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"0.34kg","offer_id":60534216655182,"sku":"KFT\/340","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"0.68kg","offer_id":60534216687950,"sku":"KFT\/C680","price":15.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/7105\/4670\/files\/New-Project-96.png?v=1787739163","url":"https:\/\/trustypetsupplies.co.uk\/products\/komodo-cucumber-tortoise-food","provider":"Trusty Pet Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
