Staple meat and Raptor loves it! suggestions?

Postby EvoSolley » Mon May 09, 2011 11:42 am

So after doing some research on the forum i decided to try this canned dog food:

Pedigree With chopped beef meaty ground dinner:

i mixed in some yellow squash and mustard greens and lets just say he scarfed it down in like 5 seconds, he eats so much! haha I need to start watching to make sure he dosent get to fat lol.

and he was even licking the bowl clean hahah

does anyone else use this food? any suggestions on the choice of a meat source? i will still feed him the occasional superworms/ grasshoppers and all that but i think and hope this will be a good staple to incorporate into his diet.

also with his size, should i start feeding him every other day or keep at once a day? also is the portion i gave him too big?

thanks for your alls help, i think raptor is gonna go chill under the heat lamp and digest haha

hmmm that looks more appetizing (to me) than the Wellness I currently use. I might have to try it for my skinks :)
