Glad she's doing better and eating on her own

Might want to switch from carrots (medium amount of oxalic acid) to butternut squash (almost no oxalic acid) for vitamin A.

Thanks, I wondered what was best out of the suggestions by the vet. He mentioned butternut squash too. There was a list he rattled off of veg with decent vitamin A but I'm so scatterbrained I could only remember carrot and butternut squash. Glad to find out which is best, the beardie will be happy cause she loves it.
