Plantain leaves are on the Red foot food list but mine don't eat them. Does anyone's eat them? This is not banana....I have those also.

The CDTs nor Redfoot here show much interest in it....I have heard others with varied species seem to like it....?

I can't open the thumbnail. Weak internet here. Are you talking about the weed plantain, Plantago major, or the leaves of the plantain tree that makes the fruits?

If its the weed, I've had some tortoises go for it right away, while others took a while to warm up to it. They all eat it with gusto now.

I don't know about the tree leaves.

Those aren't the weed type, we have here and which I think everybody here enjoys munching on.
