I've had good luck with endive, escarole, watercress and dandelion. All can be found at the grocery store. I mix in different things to try and add variety to that list, but to date mine just picks through and finds what she wants. If I offer things she doesn't like, she simply won't eat it. If...

I have a pretty picky little kid, and she took awhile to settle in and really start eating. Moving her food close to her basking area helped a lot, especially when I offered fresh right after a soak. Grocery store greens can be somewhat limiting when compared to the long lists of "weeds" often...
