Does anyone know where I can order cactus pads from.
I can not find them at any of the local grocerie stores.

Thanks

I don't know where you can order them, but if you have any Latino specialty food stores in town, you might give them a visit before you try online. The chain grocery stores in the more heavily hispanic parts of town tend to carry them more often here, too.

I found this place. My vet highly recommends their nutrional products and I just happen to notice they have cactus pads:

If you're lucky enough to live in California (HA!) then you should be able to find them at a Mexican food specialty store. My wife's mom has a huge garden of cactus in her yard, we eat them all the time. Our uros LOVE them.

Hi,
This site, which has stuff for not only turtles, but tortoises, iguanas and beardies (all close to uros), has many different kinds of cactus pads, and fruits, for sale, and also many kinds of "flowering weed" seed mixes for sale. Check it out, I've heard they are good. www.turtlecafe.com
