As with all tortoises, Indian Stars have a diet which reflects the flora of their natural environment. Even though the climate of the UK is not the same as their native India, Pakistan or Sri Lanka, a tasty and varied diet designed to keep them healthy can be grown in the UK with our delux Indian Star seed mix. The Happytortoises Indian star mix has the right blend of grasses and tortoise-safe weeds and flowers to give your Indian star an interesting and exciting meal.
We love watching our tortoises rush over to nibble on this delicious selection of healthy foods, so why not try our deluxe selection today and give your shelled friend a real treat!
Your tortoise food will be ready in as little as 7 days (some flower seeds included in the mix can take up to 21 days).
Each seed packet comes with simple and easy-to-follow growing instructions.

Tips for feeding the freshly grown food
You can either
use scissors to cut some of the tortoise mix and place in their food bowls as normal
or you can place the complete seed tray into their enclosure (dig into the substrate so it’s easier for your tortoise to access) then sit back and watch as they race over to tuck into the fruits of your labour!
or you can plant out the contents of the seedling tray in their enclosure
