Hey everybody,
I am worried about the amount of calcium my western Herman is getting. He has a cuttlefish bone in his enclosure but he wont go near it. I have tried using the supplement powders also, but when I sprinkle even the smallest amount on his food he wont touch it.
His diet is mostly weeds (dandelions and clovers) from the garden, when I cant get the weeds I use bagged baby leaf salad from the shops, he has some prickly pear cactus maybe twice a month as well. I also treat him to the odd pellet, but only on the odd occasion.
should I be worried about calcium or is he getting it from his diet?
Any advise or reassurance would be much appreciated.
Thank you
