Dandelions

[KittyLovesDragons]

In Idaho, we tend to get a lot of dandelions in our lawn and flower beds. I read that dandelions are a good staple for beardies, but the milk seems to worry me (the sticky white stuff inside them). The leaves I know don't have that much in them, but if Bodhi happened to eat a stem or flower while we're playing outside would it be safe? (You'll notice that a lot of my posts sound like a paranoid teenager is writing them. :roll: )

Dandelions are very good, the entire plant can be eaten as long as they are pesticide-free.

Gorbash will about take your fingers off to get a dandelion first thing in the AM.

yes, the leaves and flowers are good food.
