Mine like carrots! She took it the first time I toss carrot bits in the water.
She also likes cucumber but advise from members here is there isn't much nutrients in it.
I wish she like romaine lettuce. I bought a box or organic baby romaine and I have been eating it because she's not interested at all.

mine loves basil and red/green/romaine lettuce. they were hesitant with carrots at first but now they enjoy it. i gave them danelion leaves for the first time today and they didnt seem too interested in it. as soon as i go home, i will see if they finished it or not.

One o fmy turtles eats anything in the tank. The other one is pretty picky. They didnt care for the dandilion greens much, and they love carrots.

I finally tricked Simba Jr into eating his vegis. I've tried so much and he won't eat any fruit or vegis. My diet is much better because of this :p So today I cut up lettuce really really small and just threw it in with his reptomin. And he ate some of it by accident *evil laugh* Tomorrow I shall try carrots. Granted she learned quickly and ate very carefully after a couple bites.
