Diet ?

So, based on what I've learned from various caresheets, here's what I'm planning for diet. I'll also probably end up tweaking my plan based on what my Uro likes/dislikes. I know everyone has their own system, but please let me know if there are any SERIOUS deficiencies in my plan. Thanks!

At least 2 types of greens offered each day. My base will likely be dandelion or bok choy, then other greens added. I plan on trying to feed at least 3 different types each week. Dandelion is available at the local whole foods store, but if not bok choy is available elsewhere. No head lettuce.

At least 2 types of shredded vegetables each day. Again, I plan on trying to offer at least 3 different kinds each week.

Uro "party mix" made of seeds and beans.

Fruit and flowers for snacks.

Once a week I plan on dusting with Uro dust. Once a week a dusting of miner-all calcium supplement, just not on the same day as the Uro dust.

Sounds like a good plan. You've done some good research, asked some great questions, and are ready to go. Enjoy!!
