>>I don't feed much cooked meat to my muds either. That is something that they can get too much of in a hurry.
>> But I do feed them cooked shrimp or chicken (small amounts!)about once a week or so. I will also shave the soft bone of the knuckle part of a chicken thigh for them too. They really seem to go nuts for this and I don't worry about them getting splinters since this 'spongy' bone.

I usually buy boneless chicken so I hadn't thought of that.
Shrimp is so expensive here in the desert that I don't buy it very often. I do have a turtle food recipe that includes mixed shellfish, I've made that food for them in the past but the mud doesn't like it. It has too many greens in it lol.
Between his live fish & bugs... maybe he would like more cooked birds?
