So I'm wanting a critique of their diet, but also hoping to put together a handy list of *common grocery store and Wal-Mart foods* that can be fed to a redfoot. I have noticed a lot of people grow their own stuff, or live in / near metropolitan areas where they can get more variety foods, but I don't. Pretty much have Wal-Mart and one chain of grocery stores in the entire town. I imagine a lot of other people have this same issue. I have peeled through untold pages and lists of redfoot diets, and it's REALLY frustrating to only have access to less than one tenth of the foods actually listed.
So here goes - the ones with asterisks are a rotating base diet, others are sulplemented:
Kale
Collard greens*
Turnip greens*
Cactus pads
Bell pepper
Raddichio*
Apple
Strawberry
Dandelion greens*
Spring mix salad*
Endive*
Escarole*
Mushrooms
Pellet tortoise food
Worms
Mustard greens
Tomatoes
Cat food (protein)
And that's it... not a lot of variety where i live.
Follow up question - I have read you can feed them squash, do you have to cook it first? (I bake yellow squash for my bearded dragon)
Thanks y'all!
