In Reply to: Re: cuttle bone for sulcata... posted by Niki on April 14, 2003 at 15:46:24:
:he was just excited about the cuttlebone, and should settle to
:a normal amount. It's not going to harm him. As to the Mazuri,
:it does not promote pyramiding at all (there are sulcatas on
:here that from day 1 never got anything but grasses, no mazuri,
:and are pyramided) Ed uses Mazuri and has NO problems with it.
:The protein in Mazuri is reduced to a small amount when you
:add weight to the food, via water. Soak it for a second in
:warm water, then drain completely. Now you have increased
:the weight so proportionally the protein level is below most
:greens now. You will see on the Mazuri bag that they recommend
:feeding 2-4% of the body weight. Even at 41 pounds, Teddy only
:eats 2 cups a day, and leaves it when he's had enough. I get
:the 25 pound bags and even freeze a lot of it, but it's still
:so plentiful I just toss out extra he leaves. I feed him
:probably 5 days a week Mazuri.
:For a yearling, you can add it a few times a week, give him
:1/4 cup and see what he does with it.
Thanks... I will try 1/4 cup and adjust it from there!
