|
|
Hi,
well after much researching, i have made my first batch of degu food. It comprises of:
Dandelion leaf
dandelion root
marigold flower
peppermint
parsley
alfalfa
flaked barley
flaked pea
wheat
dried grass
flaked carrot
I intend to start selling this food to help fund my degu rescue, and to hopefuly help other degu owners out who have trouble finding affordable large bags of food. I am currently feeding this to my own degu, so that i can get the quantities right. i will post images and prices soon. if anyone is interested please dont hesitate to contact me. |
