From your descriptions I see nothing that describes "picky"?



I do see he may be an AGGRESSIVE feeder. Just like the other poster said, keep things he should not eat from him.



>>Socrates eats a pelleted diet that is available to him at all times while he is out in the store. He gets one leaf of romaine or red leaf lettuce and an endless supply of dandelions and dandelion greens. We have placed yellow caution signs in front of all the wood that he tries to eat. We let him run the store so that he can get enough exercise. It is kind of funny he makes a lap around the store eats a little then takes a nap in front of the dehumidifier. When he wakes up it starts again. We are building him a pen outside by the pond that will be planted but it is still to cold for him outside.
