Is honey ok for uros?

DemonFrog Jan 25, 2007 01:32 PM

in small amounts on vegetables (the stuff they might not like normally) would honey be ok? i'm not talking often or very much (mabye watered down) but i just think it could help with a "balanced" diet, i don't have a uro yet but i am thinking about 2 ornates so... also is there any chance the enzymes could help with appetite on starving animals? thanks for any imput

I really don't know, so take this for what it's worth. I can't see any good coming from feeding them honey - too much sugar. They would probably get the benefits you're talking about from bee pollen granules (which would also be less sticky and messy).

Don't think it's a good idea, like said before too many sugars, not on any lists i have every seen for diets of uros! Sorry.
