If and When to feed a fig tree

in Fruit & veg
Last weekend we bought a smallish Brown Turkey fig tree (impulse purchase!) and have it in a pot by a sunny south facing fence. All is looking good, its sprouting more leaves already. My question is do we need to feed it? When? And with what?

Thanks Dove. So I should be feeding it now? Will do!
