Zoo Med Turtle Bone 2 Pack - Natural Floating Calcium Supplement for Turtles and Tortoises

Natural Floating Calcium Supplement for Aquatic and Terrestrial Turtles and Tortoises

The Zoo Med Turtle Bone 2 Pack is a natural, floating source of calcium designed for all species of aquatic and terrestrial turtles and tortoises. Placed directly in the habitat, Turtle Bone provides supplementary calcium on an as-needed basis, allowing turtles and tortoises to self-regulate their intake naturally as part of their daily environment.

Beyond calcium supplementation, Turtle Bone serves as a habitat enrichment item. Its rough, edible surface helps prevent overgrown beaks, a common concern in captive turtles and tortoises, while also helping to curb unwanted chewing behavior by giving animals an appropriate outlet. The floating design makes it suitable for aquatic turtle tanks, where it remains accessible at the water surface.

Each pack includes 2 Turtle Bones, providing a ready supply for your habitat and allowing you to replace or rotate as needed.

Why Reptile Owners Choose It

Turtle and tortoise keepers value the Turtle Bone for its dual role as both a calcium supplement and a habitat enrichment item. Rather than relying solely on dusted food or separate supplements, Turtle Bone lets animals access calcium naturally within their environment. The beak-conditioning surface addresses a practical husbandry concern, and the floating design ensures aquatic turtles can reach it easily. Having two per pack means you always have a replacement on hand.

Quick Product Snapshot

Material and Design Breakdown

Turtle Bone is a natural material that floats in aquatic environments, making it accessible to aquatic turtles at the water surface. Its rough, edible texture serves a functional purpose beyond calcium delivery: the abrasive surface helps wear down beaks naturally during normal gnawing behavior, reducing the risk of beak overgrowth in captive animals. The natural composition means turtles and tortoises can consume it safely as part of their habitat interaction.

Setup and Compatibility Guidance

For aquatic turtle tanks, simply place the Turtle Bone in the water where it will float and remain accessible to your turtle. For terrestrial tortoise enclosures, place it directly in the habitat where the animal can access it freely. No preparation is required. Replace when fully consumed or as needed. Compatible with all species of aquatic and terrestrial turtles and tortoises.

Care and Maintenance

Replace Turtle Bone when it has been fully consumed or becomes too small to be useful. In aquatic setups, monitor for any debris and remove remnants as needed to maintain water quality. No special storage requirements beyond keeping unused bones dry until placed in the habitat.
