i was once told that at least 50 percent of their diet needs to be leafy greens but preferable more. helga and hugo would choose dry food, particularly peas, over leafy greens any day. so i always put greens in first and then dry food. but if your guy seems to be eating both, i would let him choose.

as for taming the baby, well i am in the same boat as you with my egyptian baby. this is the first baby uro i have had. hugo is a mali and he was a little bigger than your guy when i got him but hugo was always tame and he wasn't captive bred either. he is just an extremely nice uro, ha ha.
