good staple greens:
dandelion greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, escarole, endive, hibiscus leaves, fresh alfalfa, clover

good occasional greens:
collard greens, kale, nappa cabbage, radicchio, parsley

dry goodies (in a separate bowl):
ground beans (NOT kidney beans), dry lentils, split peas, bee pollen, juvie iguana pellets, grains

other stuff (cut or shredded to small pieces and fed in smaller quantities):
carrots, green beans, peas, lima beans, squash (acorn, spaghetti, etc), mango, papaya, raspberries, apple, banana

flowers:
nastertiums, dandelions, roses, hibiscus, pansies, clover

and I'm sure there's MUCH more that people will add. These are the things I'm pulling off the top of my head that I feed mine. Obviously not all at once, but at least three different greens at a time with one or more of the other things with it. The dry stuff is available at all times.

AVOID:
spinach, broccoli, lettuce (except the occasional romaine)

Hope that helps!
