what plants are okay?

lilmorton1 Jan 14, 2008 08:59 PM

I have a cherry head red foot, about 1 year old, and I want to plant some live plants in her tank, for her to hide under and eat. What type of plants are okay for red foots to eat, because I know that some are toxic. any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

also, I live in RI so I don't know if that makes a difference with what plants i can actually grow. I don't really have a green thumb!

I have a Cherry head also. I have her in a virvarium. I planted some small Rose of Shannon, and put in some Spring mix seeds. I feed her greens, dandilion, escarol, and endive. That is what the breeder said is the best food for her to eat. She gets that for two days and then on the third day fruit. I also have a strawberry plant in there. No matter what you plant, she will eventually eat everything in there, and you will find yourself planting and re-planting. Now I just have moss, and leaf litter. The moss holds in the humidity pretty good.
