I know this is going to seem like an overly-basic question considering I've had Pearl for 18 days, but... How much/often should I be feeding her? She's a one month old Hermann's hatchling. Some days she seems constantly hungry. Other days, not so much. Is it possible that maybe she just really likes the foods I give her on some days, and be less crazy about the food I give her on others?
Another: Is it possible to over supplement? I sprinkle a bit of powdered Calcium/D3 on her meals, and I also bought Vita-Sol for her baths/water.
Also related: Does anyone have any suggestions on getting her eat some of the tortoise pellets and Timothy Hay I got for her? I want her to be able to eat this in addition to fresh greens/veggies. I've tried mixing the pellets with water and mushing them up (they're huge!) then sprinkling greens on top, but she isn't interested. I put a small amount of Timothy hay in, but I really can't tell if she's nibbled at it or not. If so, not much.
