This seems to be an ongoing stress with me, feeding veggies. The only green that Chaos will eat is Collard Greens. Guess what? With the weather changing here collard greens are becomming scarce. 
Now what? I know that he likes cactus and that is a daily feeder. I cannot however support his hunger with my slow growing prickly pear cactus. I did find, purchase, and try this San Francisco Bay Healthy Herp Cactus Tortoise Treat. Here is the link https://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?c=6016+7891+6048+19686&pcatid=19686 He loves it. It is freeze dried, you soak it in warm water for a few minutes before serving. I know that fresh is best and I will still continue to find things that he will eat (still only 5 months old), but is this an OK option when his freh favorites are scarce?
He also seems to like Ficus. I went to the local nursery and "stole" a leaf
for him to try. Why by the plant w/o a sample first right? Don't worry it was organic! How often can I feed this? It is listed on the beautiful dragons nutrition chart under safe plants, but I'm not sure how often he can have it. I looked up a few sites on google about the oxalate content of ficus leaves but I can't makes heads of tail of all that 50 pound head stuff. :shock:
Does anyone have an AeroGarden? I was trying my hand at dandelions and well I can't seem to get them to grow! Go figure it's a weed! Anyway I thought that maybe I could make them grow in a AreoGarden. Chaos would always have fresh and it's organic. They aren't cheap and I just wanted to know if anyone had one before I got one. I've purchased too many things that never performed the way they were supossed to! I HATE that!

At the risk of sounding like an *****, what's a 5 gallon pickle bucket?
