Nice one!! ,

Can anyone tell me if most of the stuff on that chart/list is ok for rankin dragons too please?

I only have leos but a close friend has rankins & I'm sure it would come in handy.

beardie's & rankin's diets are fairly similar aren't they

Right, I dont want to be annoying but can anyone tell me what teh best "salad mix" for beardies is?
You know how Lidl, Tesco, Asda, Morrisons etc, all have loads of salads in a bag, I was just wondering whats the best one to buy. I am using mostly "Italian Mixed Leaf Salad" from Lidl or Morrisons just now - just wondering if anyone got any better ideas?
Thanks

I'm currently using the rocket, watercress and spinach mix from tesco or asda. The asda one also contains Red Chard and Spike seems to like it.

Do you add any other fruit/veg to that or just that? Sounds pretty good though.

I have a question. When I get my beardie obviously he or she will get greens although it'll mainly be things like dandelions which I grow especially for 'Horatio' my tortoise. I would like to offer lots of the stuff on the list but............................................I live 9 miles from any supermarket. Once greens are cut, they lose all vitamin content by 50% per day. Obviously there is no point in buying enough for a week, chopping it and storing in a container for a week. So how else can I supply variety?
