OK, I can't find small quantities of collard, beet and mustard greens locally. I'm only feeding a single Beardie. I can get 2# bags of shredded. Can this be frozen and not break down or turn to mush on thawing? Thanks much.

pm v he should know

You should be able to freeze it just fine -- but it looses some of the b-vit when you freeze it so add some brewers yeast to it before feeding. You can always make a practice batch to test as well.

Thanks Tosha. I'm not much for greens myself :lol: but I didn't wanna have to waste 4 # of goodies.

Good post Tosha. Quig she is right on the mark! WHen I had iguanas I would make up a great bg batch, bag it into single serve portions and freeze it. I also sprinkled there vitamins and calcium besides the yeast on the veggies. Worked great!

Quig do you have a Meijers by you? That's were we went to get greens for the beardies when we had them. They also sell Dandelion greens.

They also sell Dandelion greens.


Seriously?? I'll have to check that out. Oh yeah, I do have a Meijers fairly locally :lol:

Yep our Meijer carried them year round, not as great looking in the winter but we would chop up the greens and leave them in the fridge. Was nice because we could buy what we needed and not be stuck with bags of it.

When I had beardies I was able to get just about any kind of greens at a small local store. Real cheap even in the winter. About the only benifit of living in Detroit.

:yessir: They are right...When I had my iguanas I use to grow some veggies in the garden and freeze them all the time. Because some of the veggies get hard to find around here during the winter months.....if you could find them the price was a lot higher and the size of what you got was a lot smaller :machinegun:
