I have been looking through the recommended staples list - this is maybe a huge issue for me ?

None of these are in Australia where I am... collard greens, mustard greens, endive, turnip greens

So what and how then am I meant to feed a bearded dragon (adult) salads, if staple ingredients are not available ?

Kale, Buk Choy, Variety Spinach, Pak Choy - so what do I feed my dragon as a staple when I cannot get those mentioned.

I also this site https://totalbeardeddragon.com/can-bearded-dragons-eat-turnip-greens/
So turnip greens is just green plant of a turnip, does it matter what turnip ? I can buy some seedlings

It looks like turnip greens to me -- are you able to grow collards or others in Australia? What about dandelion greens or ordering prickly pear pads off of Amazon? Those are good staple foods as well

How about arugula (rocket I think) escarole…and maybe something of these other greens are available but they are called by a different name in Australia. When I lived in Italy a lot of veggies were called by different names. I know our eggplant is called aubergine for you and UK/Europe. Google pics of US names and see if a lot of these are just called by different names.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
