Am I over or under feeding my Sulcatas????

Posted by EnJay on June 04, 2001 at 21:03:37:

I'm a little confused on exactly how much food these Torts actually need! They seem like they are always hungry! I have (in an outdoor pen/Arizona) 3 Sulcatas, approx 12, 10 and 7 inches (and a seperate area for 3 9 month olds and 2 hatchling Leopards) AnywaY, I feed them twice a day, the babies getting greens and Tort chow and fruits etc..pretty much as much as they want. But the sub adults, I offer one standard size paper plate heaping with greens and Monkey bisquits occasionally and other assort foods, they get this twice a day, yet are done in minutes and always seem hungry for more. Is this enough? not enough? They have limites "grazing" in the pen, a bale of alfalfa is provided... Any thoughts?? Thanks guys!!
