bi-weekly you feed those lattucy greens n' stuff...



so the rest of the time its grasses and hay for a majority of their daily diet?..



Its very much still winter here( snow on the ground )

so in his enclosure I have a few bunches of timothy hay..



he nibbles at it periodicly and sleeps in it too.

I have a small flat food dish in there where each morning i put some chopped up fresh dill and romain lettuce.. he seems to enjoy chomping on it then promptly dozes off in the middle of it all.



I guess im on the right track. I plan on growing alot of variety of grasses for him this spring/summer/fall.



I'm still trying to find somewhere I can buy Elephant Grass to grow for him.. but no such luck finding a source yet.
