You can feed him Mazuri tortoise and iguana chows, too. I've known people who raised some of the fragile and sensitive tortoise species on the tortoise chows and great success--a hundred percent survival rate. This is tortoise chow not turtle. Tortoises are herbivores like iguanas, but turtles are omnivores that will eat animal protein. Make sure you moisten the tortoise and iguana chows first, so the gut doesn't pull the water out to try to digest it and cause the animal to become dehydrated.
