Hi guys, i guess i havn't really introduced myself properly on the forum yet which i should do so appologies for that first of all.
I have a 13 month old SHCT who is just over 10" at the moment with a nice plump tail
Today i'm getting a 9 month old female who weighs 50g and has already laid eggs. She looks quite skinny but thats from the recent laying i think.
My question is, since she has been bred and has laid her first clutch already what can i do to ensure she stays healthy.
I know females need a bit more care than males because developing eggs takes alot of energy & nutrients.
Should i dust every single feeding while also supplying constant calcium in the cage? or would that be too much.
Any other input is welcome, i'm keen to learn
