Hello and thank yoy for using pwt coach! If you are making a homemade diet, the best place in my opinion to go to is balanceit.com This website has a nifty tool called the autobalancer that will calculate how much to feed and if what you are cooking is an adequate diet. This site also sells the necessary supplements for vitamins and minerals to ensure the diet is not deficient in minerals and vitamins for soska. I hope this helps! Please feel free to contact me with any further questions you may have.
