i keep hearing rave reviews about the SDZ diet, but i can't find the recipe.. if someone knows please tell me

can a tegu be any age to eat it? also should ground turkey be raw or cooked?

10lbs. raw ground turkey
90 grams bone meal
2 centrum tabs (crushed)

Hi drool yes they can be any age and it was intended to be fed to the animal raw. I somtimes cook mine a bit just to defrost it if I didnt set it out soon enough to thaw. I believe I read in this forum that its best to have the SDZ in the freezer for 30 days before use.

great, thanks very much!

heh i don't believe i have the room for 10 lbs of turkey so as long as it's cut down proportionatly i assume that will be fine

i can't find the stuff anywhere, i went to supermarkets, vitamin stores, no luck

any clues as to where it is? and is there a specific kind? i know bone meal is used in gardening but it is the same?

Your best chance for finding EATABLE bone meal is at a health food/vitamin store. The kind used in gardening is not safe for consumption. G'luck finding it, there aren’t any health stores around here that sell it. You should be able to find it on the net though.

I got mine at Whole foods. russ

whole foods has everything...
