Are you talking about just straight baby food ? I feed a 50/50 mixture of CGD and baby food. The baby food I use all natural, has no preservatives, no artificial colors, and no starch. Only draw back is once you open it you have to use it, it has no shelf life once open.

Wish I had a basement...that sounds comfy, lol. My apartment is only about 12 years old but its terrible. Air comes in around the outlets, the windows have moisture between the glass panes, the temps rise by about 7 degrees at night, and they get so humid everything feels damp, and I live on the 2nd floor. I have to run the air to keep it nice in here, so the temps jump around alot. Takes a bit of work to manage my enclosures.
