[Gpdd] care celery

[Joanne Colangelo]

Thank you for this information, Joan!  I had just made a large salad for my kiddos and had put pieces of corn on the cob in there...which I had never done.  So...I read your email and took them out.  We're sticking with romaine, carrots, and celery tonight!
Thanks again!

  Corn husks-in moderation.  Trust me-in moderation.  Since corn is a grass and GP's main diet is grass in one form or another I figured it was great for Lady Bug.  It is good for their teeth, no question but not so good on the tummy.  I was giving her the equivelent of an entire husk from an ear of corn every day.  She is a husk junkie and got to where she demanded it.  Well, she and I have just come off a program to reduce the amount of gas she had built up!  Not fun at all poor baby.  She even wound up on a med to improve her motility.
   
  If you give your babies 1-2 leaves every couple of days that should be fine.  The silk surprisingly is great for their teeth also - in moderation.  The silk is what the Bugster actually went for  first.  Corn kernals are not so good.  They are very high in starch and sugars and can cause bloat.  I don't feed the kernals, just the exterior.  I know some people give them the empty cobs as well, but the Bugster doesn't like them so it's not a problem here.
   
  Oatmeal - I guess it's ok in VERY small amounts once in awhile.  Again, high in starch and sugars.
   
  Hope this helps.
