My 4 month old Sulcata ate grass all on her own!
I picked up some of the cat grass (oat grass) to go and mixed in a couple of other seeds including millet, and barley.
It has now grown tall enough I have been able to start snipping it (roughly 3 inches long) and putting it in a pile just outside of her hide.
It was mainly all gone by noon so I figured I would I would put down a 2nd and larger handful...again this afternoon is was all gone ❤.
I know this doesnt seem big, but I am so happy she is eating it on her own! She doesnt seem to want to graze it yet, but is eating it, so we are over the first step!
That said, does this mean I should start offering her days of just the cut grass, and other days she gets her leafy greens/veg, or should I keep offering those daily just in smaller amounts?
Should I keep sprinkling ground hay onto her leafy greens?
Is fresh grass like that enough fiber?
