My neighbor has a ton of Russian Thistle in his yard. Is this ok to feed my adult sulcata often?

Can we see a photo of Russian Thistle (preferably the whole plant in the ground). I have no idea what it is, but it may be called something different in the UK :)

I think you mean tumbleweed, right?

It’s not actually a thistle, it’s from another plant family. I imagine the one in your neighbors yard isn’t this dry yet. :)

I’ve seen it on a few safe plant lists on the site. I’d say give it a try; my Russian won’t eat it. (The irony; my Russian won’t eat this Russian plant!)

Here are photos. Yes tumbleweed is correct I believe.
