Favourite Foods
Our love almost any green but their absolute top favorites seem to be cilantro, apple (treat), blueberries (Phantom especially, they used to be one our old girl SleighBelle's top favorites), cucumber, wheatgrass, Kleenmama pellets, red bell pepper. They devour all their vegetables though, so it's hard to say which ones are their most favorites, but the ones they get as treats or in smaller amounts such as cilantro, bell pepper, apple etcetera they seem to go especially crazy for.
Their favorite hay is timothy and they seem especially fond of third cutting (I get it when I can either through Kleenmama's or locally).

Our Ozzie goes wild over carrots, cucumber, celery, broccoli and lettuce. He also enjoys various wild weeds when they are young, banana peels and apple skins. When we first got him, we did not know not to feed him very many carrots or broccoli and we had a lot extra in the frig, so he hate pretty much just those and fresh greens and grass from outside. He had 2 carrots and a piece of broccoli every day and never seemed to get gas. We of course have backed him off, now, but never worry about the exact amount either. At first, we were really confused that he would not touch any kind of nut...he hates them! He also dislikes fruit, most of the time, but occasionally gets a hankering for a little nectarine or peach. We hope to get him a playmate, soon, so it will be interesting to see how its tastes differ.[/i]

My boys really enjoy spinach. Now that I cant get the bags of mixed greens anymore, they are out of season. But I havent seen alot of people mention spinach. Is it a not so healthy choice.
When we make boiled dinner, I give the boys one small, 1.5", strip of cabbage. They LOVE cabbage! My mom tried to give them each 1 leaf the other day, had to remind her that they only get a little bit every 6 mths or so.
We also like green peppers, carrots, red leaf lettuce, and cilantro.
Oliver will do just about anything for some friseé lettuce; Bubba will stand "on your brick" for red bell pepper; and Percy will let you pick him up and hold him without chattering if you have apple peel.
Then again, all three will do just about anything for some fresh apple peel, especially if it's fresh from the orchard apple peel!
