Hello everyone!
about 3 weeks ago I bought my little tort some herbal hay from Tortoise supply. He absolutely loves it so far but I have a question. Can I feed it to him everyday? Does it have enough calcium in it that I don’t need to be adding the calcium powder two times a week? I heard feeding sullys calcium everyday interrupts them from digesting their other nutrients ? Currently, I feed him wheat grass and top it with some herbal hay everyday and 3 times a week I add some Mazuri pellets to it. Also, about 2 times a week I sprinkle a pinch of Calcium powder to his food.
Also how much should I be feeding him? He is 59 grams at the moment. So I have been feeding him 2 grams of food everyday.
Will any please let me know if maybe I’m feeding him too much calcium?
I want to do everything that’s right for him.
I also want to introduce him to new food but don’t know if my weeds outside are safe for him.
here’s a little photo of my guy ready to stop soaking and hit his food!
Thank you all!
xoxo
