Re: foods

It's fine to keep a small dish of birdseed in the enclosure. But you want to make sure he eats a variety of food. Iceburg lettuce is not a good one. It is very low in nutritional value. Dandelion greens are excellent. Here is a good caresheet.

Re: foods

Yeah, I'd just take a look at the care sheet that kriminaal linked you to. I go off that for my Mali Uro.

Re: foods

The caresheet's a good one. Be sure to take in those diet tips. Also make sure you thoroughly wash any dandelion greens you feed him.
