Pellets are the least part of their diet. They need at the minimum 1 cup of veggies per day each, primarily leafy greens.
In order it would be hay, veggies, water, pellets.
When formulating the charts I had to take all factors into consideration. This means sugar content, calcium, phosphorus, vitamin C, vitamin A and oxalic acid along with other nutrition data you don't see on the charts. Kale could have easily been put into the D category as well because of calcium and vitamin A. But other factors such as ca : ph ratio, low sugar and other stuff kept these items from being in the D category. |
