Babies RES need more protein than the
adults do so I'd feed them the same stuff, you might have to chop the snails a bit or find small ones. Also worms, snails, crickets, cooked chicken. Collard and mustard greens for veggies, carrots, apples, strawberries for veggies. kathy :-) www.blogfromthebog.com new entry - herons |

They grew like crazy on these pellets and were very tame. They were all relocated to the lake about a mile away. -- McKoi.... the frugal ponder... ~~~ }((((o ~~~ }{{{{o ~~~ }(((((o |
