Specially adapted to the dietary needs of water and marsh turtles.
Most of these turtles are omnivorous. However, they particularly prefer to eat fish and other aquatic animals such as crustaceans, molluscs, insects and often even aquatic plants. JBL offers a wide range of products for a diet tailored to the needs of each size of turtle. Dried fish, crustaceans, molluscs and insects are at the forefront and correspond to a natural, species-appropriate diet.

Other good reasons to use JBL food
Impressive appetite in turtles
Field research with feeding in the wild. Minimal vitamin loss thanks to hermetically sealed packaging. JBL food boxes and buckets are 100% recyclable, as the box, lid, label and lid are made entirely of PP monomaterial. No need to remove the label from the box, as is normally the case with other food boxes. We were also able to reduce the thickness of the plastic by using a very high-quality polypropylene (PP). The use of polypropylene ensures full recyclability at the end of the product's life. The recycled material is used for the manufacture of new products, which minimises the spread of pollutants into the environment.

Turtle species for which this food is ideal (examples):

JBL expeditions often provide an opportunity to visit tortoise habitats, whether in deserts or, more often, in tropical wetlands. Observations made about their lifestyle and feeding habits are incorporated into the development of JBL food varieties. This information, taken directly from nature, is extremely valuable, as it is hardly available otherwise.
The aim should always be to care for animals in a way that respects the needs of their species and ideally to ensure their offspring in order to reduce the number of animals taken from the wild. The reproduction of some species is not absolutely necessary, since the species sold commercially are bred or their population is not endangered, but JBL considers it desirable to ensure the reproduction of pets.
