What do you all feed your beardies as staple greens?

PoohBear03031 Sep 30, 2005 08:00 AM

Tequila is very picky about what she will eat. I have given her collard greens, belgian endive, kale, radichio (sorry about the spelling), cactus pads, chard, and mustard greens.

She used to take the collards, now she won't touch them. Same with the mustard greens, not that I blame her, have you ever tasted the mustard greens? They are really spicy! She had no interest in the catus pads, she lost interest in the endive,and the radichio. She is still willing to eat the chard when she feels like it.

So. I am jsut interested in finding out if any of you ahve similar problems with your BD's. Thanks.

My beardie aka Frank, will eat all most any kind of green I give him. He's been like that since I brought him home. Just be persistent, They're just like children don't let them fill up on what they pig out on most, they'll spoil their appitite
