Bee Pollen

[Mirthy]

Hi Folks,
I've come to pick your brains.
I've seen reference to Bee Pollen in a couple of posts. I think it was to help with appetite? If so is there a certain amount? Is there too much?




PS: Any information or other suggestions for appetite stimulation would be great - I have another thread in this area for Norris re: his under weight condition and his current issues.

I've just started pollen with my guy, not only is it supposed to help with appetite but its full of vitamins and minerals. My dragon is pretty big, near 20" now and he gets about 1/8" of a teaspoon or less. I don't actually measure, I just use a pinch. My little baby gets 2-3 granuals every few days just for the vits/minerals it provides.
I'm sure you could over do it but I'm unsure what would be considered too much.

There is another appetite stimulant called jump start, its a sweet, oily, high calorie paste. I've used it with decent results.

Thank you very much, Gail.
I've seen references to it all over but couldn't find any amounts. I'll look for the jump start. I really appreciate the help!
