Chicory - good? nutritional value?

jack7777766 Feb 22, 2005 12:04 AM

Hey All,

Ive tried a batch of chicory a couple of times and my uro seems to like it than most other recommended staple greens ive tried, I was wondering if it could be used as a staple and if anyone know if its nutritious (nutritional content?).
Thanks

you can try the beautiful dragons page. it is geared toward beardies but it has alot of good info on it. i don't know the address off the top of my head but i usually just type in beautiful dragons and i can find it.
i really just wanted to say that is the cutest baby! it is so tiny but it already has a wicked glimmer in its eye

Go to iguanaden.com and then to their diet section. I feed my iguana and mali that diet and they love it and are growing and staying very healthy on it. Chichory is good if you add it to your staple food ie.. collard green , arugula, dandillion green. check it out.
