How much food to feed:Adult tortoises can be fed every day, however, six days a week would be healthier, as captive tortoises tend to be overfed. An amount of food that takes between five and twenty minutes to eat is a good guide.For hatchlings and young animals, you can divide this into two feeds; one in the morning and one in the afternoon, allowing enough basking time to aid with digestion.
Good supplementation is very important, for captive tortoises, to prevent deficiencies, as they originate from regions where the soils are relatively rich in calcium and other essential trace elements.Fresh food can be dusted with a good quality phosphorus free supplements to provide vitamins and minerals and enable the diet to obtain a positive calcium profile.
