Has anyone tried to feed false hawksbeard? I fed them awhile ago thinking they might be similar to hawksbeard, but it seems that its genus changes from crepis, which was similar to hawksbeard, to youngia.

Now i am worried if it was okay to feed this to them. I searched its properties but i cannot find information anywhere.

By the way, my hermann’s and russian tortoises liked them. 🐢

It's in the daisy family so likely safe enough in moderation. Impressive yours will eat any daisy so I'd take advantage of it.
