Couple Questions...

[RussianRookie]

Ive noticed that Carrots shouldnt be fed too often. why is this? my russian LOVES carrots. more than anything else. since ive read that i have given him any. Another thing i thought is can they eat radish? I also have some ReptiVite. can this be used?

Carrots and other vegetables contain a lot of sugar. You're better off feeding leafy greens and various weeds. Some people offer veggies more than others. I've only offered Nelson carrot once.

Oh ok. then ill have to cut back on the carrots a lot then.

My russians get carrot once a month. They do like the radish tops.

Root veggies are USUALLY moderate/high in Oxalic acid too... which is why they should be an occasional food... carrots are though a good vit A food... i feed to mine once per month....
