If he's emptying his bowels then he that's likely a good sign. It shows that he's hydrated. I wouldn't feed fruit to sulcatas; they have a habit of getting addicted. You could feed pumpkin or squash instead.

Ok, so buy some Spring Mix, or even some red or green leaf lettuce. They usually REALLY like the red leaf lettuce. Its not something you want to feed exclusively, but we've got to get this baby in the habit of eating. Just try it and see if he'll eat. If so, then we'll work on it some more, so keep us informed.
