    Default Bamboo good or bad?

    I have a ton of Bamboo outside i just wanted to know if its ok for Earl to chew/eat them. I try to bring in as many out side elements for him to chew on since he has a tendency to eat greens from outside rather the leafy greens i buy him.

    I know they cant chew on palm jus i hust eanted to be on the safe side about the bamboo he is now 12 .5 weeks

    I wouldn't use bamboo, a sliver could be a real problem if that occurred, very hard to get out as it soften unlike most wood sources. It is also very high in a calcium lowering anti-nutrient known as Oxalate.
