Zoo Med Turtle Bone

Zoo Med Turtle Bone – Natural Calcium Source for Turtles and Tortoises

Zoo Med Turtle Bone is a natural calcium source designed for suitable turtles and tortoises. It can be placed in the enclosure to provide access to additional calcium as part of a balanced diet and proper husbandry routine.

The floating design makes it especially useful for aquatic turtle setups, while it may also be used for suitable terrestrial turtles and tortoises where appropriate.

Key Benefits

• Natural calcium source for turtles and tortoises

• Floating design for aquatic turtle enclosures

• Can provide additional calcium as part of a balanced diet

• May offer light enrichment through natural chewing behaviour

Suitable For

Zoo Med Turtle Bone may be suitable for:

• Aquatic turtles

• Terrestrial turtles

• Tortoises

• Keepers looking to provide an additional calcium source

• Enclosures where a floating or chewable calcium item is appropriate

How to Use

Place the Turtle Bone in the enclosure according to the product instructions and the needs of the species being kept. For aquatic turtles, it can float in the water so the turtle can access it as needed.

Replace the Turtle Bone when it becomes worn, dirty or no longer suitable for use. Always keep the enclosure clean and provide fresh water where required.

Care Guidance

Calcium support should be used alongside a species-appropriate diet, correct UVB lighting, suitable heating and proper enclosure care. Turtle and tortoise calcium needs can vary depending on age, diet, species, growth stage and overall husbandry.

Do not rely on calcium products alone to correct shell, bone or beak issues. If you notice soft shell, poor growth, abnormal beak wear or other health concerns, seek suitable reptile care advice.
