Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Can beardies eat spring mix from Wal-Mart? It has baby lettuce, baby greens and radicchio. It is also organic too.

It wouldn't be recommended as a staple diet. There are healthier options than baby lettuce/greens and the radicchio has a disproportionate calcium to phosphorus ratio which makes it unhealthy to feed regularly. Acceptable greens include but are not limited to: collard greens, dandelion greens, mustard greens, kale, beet greens, bok choy, parsley and alfalfa hay.
