Super Veggie solves the herbivore supplementation problem: how do you dust a salad? Powdering vegetables with standard calcium powder produces a chalky coating that many tortoises and lizards simply eat around. Super Veggie is formulated specifically for mixing with fresh vegetables - at just 2.5% by weight (one tablespoon per pound of veg) it disappears into the salad while correcting the calcium, vitamin A, D and E shortfalls that fresh produce alone leaves behind.
The Problem It Solves
Shop-bought vegetables are grown for human preferences, not reptile nutrition - they're typically low in calcium relative to phosphorus and short on the fat-soluble vitamins herbivorous reptiles need. A tortoise or iguana on an undusted supermarket salad is quietly accumulating deficiencies. Super Veggie's analysis (minimum 4% calcium, 100,000 IU/lb vitamin A, 10,000 IU/lb vitamin D) is calibrated to bring a fresh vegetable diet up to the right standards for a herbivore at the recommended inclusion rate.
How to Use
Sprinkle over chopped vegetables at 25 grams per kilo (1 tablespoon per pound) and mix thoroughly, or pre-mix with water into a dressing and toss the salad in it. Use at every vegetable feeding.
Who It's For
Tortoise keepers are the core audience - every leafy meal for a Hermann's, horsfield or sulcata benefits. Also: green iguanas, uromastyx, chuckwallas, and the salad component of bearded dragon and blue-tongued skink diets (pairing naturally with Beardie Buffet and Bluey Buffet in a varied rotation).
A Candid Note for Invert Keepers
We're asked whether Super Veggie suits isopods and millipedes feeding on vegetables. It's formulated and dosed for vertebrate herbivores, so we don't recommend repurposing it - invertebrates self-regulate calcium far better from graze-as-needed sources like cuttlebone and crushed oyster shell, which is exactly how we supply our own colonies.
Ideal for: tortoises, iguanas, uromastyx and the vegetable portion of omnivore diets.
