Commercial tortoise pellets can be used as a supplement but should not replace fresh foods. High quality pellets provide vitamins and minerals, but natural greens offer better fiber and hydration. Pellets should be soaked before feeding to prevent choking and dehydration. Always check ingredients to avoid artificial additives. When used correctly, pellets can support balanced nutrition alongside fresh vegetables.
