Can they eat the weeds with the yellow flowers? That's not oxalis, is it?

Thank you! According to our local plant expert it is called Trifolium dubium or yellow clover. When the flowers mature they look like white clover but yellow. Most of the mature flowers have already come and gone but these little guys were "tricked" by Mother Nature & b/c of the already chilly nights we have here they'll never reach maturity.

Thank you!! :) They're eating Trifolium Dubium (yellow clover), Portulaca oleracea (purslane), & Plantago Major (broadleaf plantain). Didn't mean to get all nerdy on ya but I know some people know different plants by different names. :p

No, I'm glad you did. I recognized the clover, and I thought I recognized the plantain, but I didn't know what purslane was. Now that you mention it, I think we get purslane around here, too. They started growing in July. As for the clover, my Russians like it a lot (as my redfoot used to). And as for the plantain, I just fed it to my guys this morning for the first time. The female sniffed at it for several minutes; I don't think she's had anything like that in a long time. But eventually she started eating it, and she seemed to like it pretty well, along with the dandelions it was with. As for the male, he still hasn't come out of his burrow to feed today. Must be the late-summer sleepy season ... in the wild, he would be aestivating right about now. ;)
