pellet food question??

claymore Jan 11, 2005 07:57 AM

does anyone feed their URO the dry or moist pellet food like the rep-cal brand for Bearded dragons. If so what type do you use?

I offer T-Rex iguana pellets on occasion, sprinkled over a salad or mixed into the dry dish. My uros don't really seem to eat them except by accident, though. If you offer pellets, think of it as a supplement rather than a staple. And I would aim for pellets made for iguanas, as beardies have a higher protein diet than uros or igs. I haven't compared the two kinds of pellets to know that this is true, but that's what I've heard, and what makes sense to me.
