I sew. Thats a good idea. Currently i have an organic mix of lettuces and greens. All under list of edible by leopards so no worrys lol. But u know how small and young he is. Is there something i should be feeding a hatchling like him or is what i have ideal. And what of the vitamin powder. Is he too young? I dont wanna leave anyrhing out or assume im doing this the right way for his size.

Here are some things to add:
calcium supplement, without vitamin D3

A high quality powder mix like TNT from carolinapetsupply (made from weed powders) is useful to fill in nutritional gaps

Every week or two give him a little zucchini or pumpkin for vitamin A. vitamin A deficiency can lead to respiratory infection.

And thats for hatchling correct.

I have some trial size zoomed reptivive powder i got from the expo. Is that well known to be good for tortoises? Or some brands i should look at??

About the zuchini and pumpkin. Theres many types. Any type ideal? Or any types to stay away from?
