I have a 3 year old Star Tortoise. Can you let me know where I can get a high-fibre food for my tortoise?

I'm sorry that I can't tell you where to buy the food your pet needs.

You are right to be concerned. A star tortoise needs a diet high in fiber. Most things you can buy in a market or grocery store does not have enough fiber. You need rough grasses.

Here is what one Indian zoo feeds its star tortoises
