1. Is not plantain. I don't know what it is, but I feed it to my torts.
2. I don't know.
3. Hawkbit. It grows wild at my place and my torts eat it.
4. I call that dandelion. Mine eat it all the time.
5. I thought this was burr clover, but the ladies say otherwise. I would trust their word over mine.
6. I don't know.
7. Yep, grass.
8. Don't know.

Should i wait for the weeds to mature first before picking them?
