Hi! I'm a very new owner of a sulcata! Morty's about 5 mos old. I want to make sure I'm giving her the right diet. I've ordered a few books and I'm so grateful to have found this forum. I bought Timothy hay from a local feed store and I'm finally getting her to start eating it but she doesn't eat as much as I think she should. I'd like to try and get her some other grasses/plants and put some small pots of them in her enclosure. The problem is I'm having a hard time finding what I need naturally. I'd like to try to buy some wheatgrass but I'm having a hard time finding it already grown. Anybody have any suggestions for some plants that I could buy to get me started until I can get a good garden going to sustain a big part of her diet? She loves carrot tops, African violet blossoms, carrots of all colors, yellow squash. I'm just starting to be able to get her to eat the Mazuri pellets if I moisten them first and mix them in. It's very confusing as I've found so many conflicting opinions on diet. I'd really appreciate your suggestions as I want to provide Morty with a healthy diet! Thank you!!!!
