I need to experiment abit, i bet G-G doesn`t have even half of whats on this list
 
I must admit Ive become a bit lazy with Flint and his veg, he tends to get cooked frozen mixed veg, so not as much variation as he could. Must try to do better!
 
You know I can't get peas here where I live only frozen ones ,they eat green beans here.


What's the fat ones that you get ,is it broad beans or something, are they not good for them I remember reading that they were not good but now I'm not sure. Anyway they don't get them so it doesn't matter. But are they ok or not.

I give mine broad beans, Zuri loves them, have read about them being bad in large quantities if not cooked properly but sure a few a day are fine :thumbsup:
 
Mine love beans too. I also feed frozen veg, I wouldn`t have the time or money to pay for fresh I don`t think.
 
at least Luna will eat mainly everything.. baby is fussy, like Budge was , she like parsnips and yellow and orange peppers but thats about it with veggies lol


Another reason i am glad i got her straight on pellets.
 
the babes love cauliflower, brocolli, sprouts, french beans, parsnips, sugar snap peas they are the favs..... but they eat a variety but i think i make to much for them now there is only 4 as they never eat it all!!!!
