dried dandelion and plantain

shafach · 01-01-2009, 09:17 AM

Hi all...
I bought a couple of bags of dried dandelion and plantain yesterday from the pet shop... I know that it is no substitute for fresh weeds, but was wondering if when im struggling to find them when the ground is so frozen, could i give the torts some of these ? Any advice very much appreciated

alot depends on how they were dried. Most often the nutrional value of dried foods, in this case weeds, is greatly diminished. I guess if nothing else is available then there is no harm in feeding this. It just doesn't give much either.
