Is this food high in Iron?

When I look at the analysis of the ingredients, there is no mention of iron. I purchased this food after speaking with an exotic vet, because this is the food that zoos across the country use for hedgehogs in their exhibits. It has a minimum of 28% crude protein and the main ingredient is poultry byproduct. My hedge eats it right up!!

This states 8oz. How long does it take to get through one bag? Doesn’t seem like a lot of food

I bought a bag of this in June 2019 and still have half a bag. The pellets are only the size of BBs and I sprinkle about a teaspoon over his dry cat food occasionally. My hedgie is so picky and I find these on the floor of his cage, so I don't know if he's eating them or just pulling them out of the bowl. I just look at them as a treat, not a regular meal.

How long should a small 8 oz package last?

It lasts my hedghog about 3 weeks. This is the only food she eats.

why does it contain BHA?

Probably used as a preservative- increase shelf life
