Question
hello. is there anything i can get from the grocery store that would be good to feed my baby sulcata? i plan to grow my own but need something for right now.

Answer
Hi Angelo, The best grocery store options are dandelion, collard, escarole, kale, mustard greens and turnip greens. Some romaine can be used but you want to avoid the watery lettuces like iceberg. Spinach must be fed sparingly due to its high oxalate content. Fruit should also be fed in just small amounts to sulcatas due to the high sugar content.
