GeeBee seems well, is growing and trots around his outdoor enclosure happily, but does not seem to want to eat much more than Mazuri. He does eat fruit - loves tomatoes - which I give him every 3 days, & wolfs down the 6 grams of protein I give him - chicken breast or more likely scrambled egg - which I only give him once a week or so.
However, he barely touches greens - either decent lettuce or collards. I've tried not feeding him a day, but feel bad if I don't feed him every day so break down after a day of fast & give him greens, which he'll pick a way at a bit then leave. I repeat this proceedure for a couple or 3 days & he'll do the same & then I give him Mazuri which he devours as if starved.
Anyone with any advice, please? Do I have to starve him a few days or what to get him to eat a varied diet & if so, do I have to keep on doing that, or what?
