    Default spinach

    Spring mix? It has spinach and just know many have said "no" to spinach. Is spring mix fine to feed?

    Some have more than others. I always pick the spinach leaves out and feed the lettuces only. The amount of oxalic acid in spinach makes it problematic.

    I feed the Spring Mix as it is when I get it and have never had any issues.
    I usually buy broccoli, snap peas or bok choy for my squirrels greens.

    ...... along with wild plants and leafs.

    Thanks for the input...decided to pick out the spinach...guess if I miss one here and there it doesn't seem to be a huge deal. He gets broccoli, cabbage, bok choy, Brussels sprouts and lettuce along with maple leaves, seeds, green beans (I freeze them for a green bean popsicle, only way he likes them) and his own indoor grass patch for greens. He eats better than I do most times
