What greenery from the outside is suitable for my beardie?

[Jobe]

Is it safe for my beardie to eat things such as tree leaves and flowers? I know most fruits and vegetables are acceptable that's if they want to eat them lol

For the most part, no its not safe. Unless you know it has been grown without fertilizers or insecticides I would pass on it. Outside pollution can also find its way into plants, its just not worth the risk. You can grow your own dragon food in pots, much safer.

Btw, there are a lot of fruits and veggies that are no good for dragons to eat, check this list out. As you can see, some things are a no no, others ok in moderation.

Grow your own dandelions and clover. My beardies love the greens and my iguana and bunny love the flowers. [emoji4]

Yea it's pretty hard to be sure if the plants have been exposed to toxins or not.. I steer clear of outdoor items unless I've grown them or I gather from a place I know has not been exposed to pesticides.. I do dandelions, clover hibiscus flowers
