Default Confused.

I bought the Higgins and the Mazuri food! I bought two bags of each. So I read that you mix one bag to one bag. My question and where I'm confused on is, how much do I actually give him? Like, how many of the mazuri blocks and how many teaspoons/tablespoons do I give of the Higgins? I've never gotten a straight answer as to how many times a day to feed or how much to feed a day, so I figured I'd ask Now especially with the new food. Thanks in advance!

P.S. ive given him two of the mazuri blocks and he shoved them in his pouch. That's not dangerous right? Do I have to cut or smash them before feeding?

I've never used either but I don't remember any members saying there was a need to beak up the blocks.
With normal mix rather than blocks they usually eat about a tablespoon a day, maybe a little more for a syrian, so you can put enough for about three days in his bowl, or scatter it if you scatter feed, then give more food again when it's gone.
They don't normally overeat so better to give a bit more than you think he needs rather than too little.
They need a bit extra to make a decent hoard too.
