Palatability and Digestibility

This food contains highly digestible and palatable sources of energy, plant proteins, and fibers. The addition of animal protein is not necessary.

Easy to Feed Menus

Vitamins and other supplements are not necessary when you feed Marion Reptile Food. Excesses of certain vitamins may even prove harmful. Vitamin and mineral supplements are not necessary without the specific advice of a veterinarian.
Marion Reptile Food can be fed with a few fruits and vegetables to give your reptiles variety and natural sources of moisture and fiber, and that’s all. It can be moistened with water, fruit, or vegetable juice and will not lose its shape. Moistened food sometimes is easier for juveniles to eat.

There is not any scientific reason to have different foods for similar groups of herbivorous reptiles. Most people who try to feed too many different foods and vitamin supplements to their reptiles are sometimes doing more harm than good because they are guessing as to what is good for their animals.
