So I think I might have not been very specific about this whole dog food thing. I actually don't base the diet on dog food...he actually only gets it once a month and not very much when he does get it. He usually gets crickets,or mealworms, or snails (really goes crazy for these) with his greens or just fruit and greens. But maybe I should try put in some more fruits and greens and leave the animal products for a once a month thing. However, the pet store he was at previously did base his diet on dog food, so there may have been some pre-existing conditions here. Needless to say, he's not going to get it even as a treat anymore, and probably not being fed as much; he is a bit of a fatty.

The question remains though, has anyone seen this in their plated before?

Also, does anyone use peat moss as a substrate for their plated, and if so, how's that working out?
