Not bad at all Minty, now you have mentioned it not a lot of plantain eaten by mine, plenty of grass too.

mine have not been out a lot this month as it's been freezing but they tend not to eat the 'grassy' part of thrift when it's flowering, they never usually eat the flowers of thrift at all at any time.

there are so many plants out there now that they think it's an all you can eat buffet, they go about having bites of this and that which is grand because nothing gets eaten right down to the ground
