could you please point us specifically to that article? I queried wardley and reptomin on that forum and found posts, but I didn't see one stating "Wardly doesn't have some of the vitamins and minerals like in Reptomin....according to people who analyze it"



Both have calcium and D3, as well as many other vitamins and minerals and more importantly have different protein sources. Like I said before I'm not as concerned with which brand/type is "THE" best nutrition, but rather prefer using 2 or more brand/types for added variety in nutrition. Just my oppinion and approach. I believe ZooMed and Mazuri and others make turtle pellets too and I would guess they would work fine as well, I just haven't used them, because I buy Wardley and Reptomin in bulk from the supplier I use and then I mix them in a large sealed plastic jar. I also use them both in the frozen venison/veggie/fruits/eggs/pellets balls that I make for my adults.
