Diet Two adults and one baby. Should I buy adult or baby pellets?

Give the baby the timothy pellets, and take the baby out of the cage for a sprig or two of parsley every day. When s/he's six months old, stop the parsley.

Agreed, adult pellets and add in extra calcium some otHer way, like parsley or alfalfa.

Oh well now you have me worried, I give all of them parsley fairly often (roughly once a week), should I not be doing that?

I give parsley on occasion, it's not harmful it just has a lot of C in it. I don't think a sprig once a week is going to do any harm. But you could try cilantro instead for a more common treat.

@HollyLeaf, the problem isn't lots of vitamin C, it's that it has a lot of Calcium. Calcium and Vitamin C are two very different things.

Ugh, good lord I'm an idiot. Forgive me. Not the first time I've mixed things up.
