Well it's been a little over 2 weeks since we brought home our little
redfoot baby and all I can say it's been enjoyable to say the least.
I still haven't settled on a name yet, had decided on Dozer but threw
that out, just didn't seem to have much class to it.
Anyway I have a few questions.
How often does everyone change the sphagnum moss out?
I have been scooping the bm's when I can find them but I'm sure this stuff eventually goes sour?
Concerning growth, I've been weighing our baby roughly every week, don't want to stress her too much, but she's gone from 54g to 63g in 2 weeks. Gaining about 4-5 g a week, does this sound ok for this ageor tort? She's about 3 and a half months old. I prepare a good 3 tablespoons of greens and she eats about 1/2 to 3/4.
Feeding wise she loves the greens but not to crazy about her fruit. The morning after her fruit feed she seems to be starving and lunges into her vegies. Is it ok that she's hardly eating any friut? I've given her apple, pear, mango, pineapple and strawberries.
Had a fecal done at the vets and it came back neg.
Thanks for reading any help is greatly appreciated.
