Greens

[MyManGethro]

Hello everyone I'm having a problem finding the proper greens where I live. I live in EStevan Saskatchewan and I am trying to make sure I have everything ready to go before I get my dragon and so far the hardest thing is the greens I have been to all of our grocery stores and they don't carry mustard greens,collard greens or dandilion greens.i could order a homemade salad from Regina but I would like to do it myself the only hing I can find for sure in my little town is squash and I'm pretty sure he's going to get bored with just that. Does anybody have any alternative suggestions m getting concerned that I'm not going to be able to get him th proper greens . Help please

Sometimes it's rough, especially in winter. Just have to do the best you can with what is available to you. Squash and green beans are good. Bell pepper is good. Can you get turnip greens or bok choy? Those are good leafy green options too.

Thank you that is very helpful I was starting to freak out. Does it matter what bell peppers or are all ok

I think they're all OK. The green ones tend to be my dragons favorite but your mileage may vary. This list may give you some more ideas. Just reference it when you're at the store and pick up what looks freshest. http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html

Try finding what you can at the supermarket and cross reference it with the approved foods list. You might be able to find something on the list your supermarket carry's.
