How many crickets are too many crickets? I have an older three toed that I recently got. The previous owner thought it was a Russian tortoise and had been feeding it spring mix salads for the past year at least. She had gotten it from a guy off craigslist who also thought it was a tortoise. So. I am very concerned about its nutrition. Also, she did not have a UVB light. At first, she refused to touch any of the live crickets I have her. So I got cricket croutons and offered that on her salad as long as some box turtle pellets. she ignored them for a few days, then tried them and LOVED THEM. Then last night I noticed her chasing and catching the water dragons crickets and she cannot get enough! So now. I am not sure what todo. Everything I read about box turtles it mixed and confusing. I would like to know what ratio protein, veggies, fruit, and greens I should be giving her. Also, should I keep pellets available? And which supplement should I use and how often?
