Hi everyone. I just want to introduce myself. Been a member since early of this month and just decided to come out of my shell.
I live in Indonesia and I have a sulcata named Taco. I had it since him was a week old (just call "him" for now). Luv him to pieces.. he is so adorable. Unfortunately, I haven't found this forum before. I didn't know about mazuri so Taco is rather small for a 6 months old. He is 80 gr now.
I was really worried about his growth, until I found DeanS IT thread. IT2 is so much like Taco. After I read about Mazuri, I was able to order it online. But Taco wouldn't eat it. I even bought Mazuri LS too. He didn't like it either. He is a picky eater. I wish I had read Tom's thread before about exposing him to as many food as I can when he was younger. I'll keep trying giving him more weeds and grasses. But so far it's kinda hard because Taco doesn't like mazuri to mix those new food with. What I do, I just chop some grasses and sprinkle it on top of his endive or other veggie that he likes. As much as he can, he will eat around those grasses and weeds. That lil bugger.. He also doesn't like his food chopped. He likes to tear those leaves in his cute-savage-beasty style.
I hope he'll be ok and will gain some weight..
Well, just wanna thank so many people in this forum
