I just wanted to know if you guys thought that Louies diet was ok!
Every Day (morning) I feed Louie about 2 cups of collard greens and Mustard greens (chopped small of course). With that he gets about 1/2 cup of shreeded zuccini (spelling), yellow squash, bell pepers (occasionally) and Green beans. Fruits he gets are about 1/4 cup of mango,grape and apple(occasionally).
If he is still Hungary he gets more greens but this is what he gets a day how does it look?

Looks pretty good Audrey. Except for your fruits. Its actually safer to feed apples more often than grapes, but either one should be kept to a minimum and used as occasional treats. Are you chopping the green beans up really small too? Beans should be ground up until the pieces are just slightly bigger than a grain of rice, this will keep your iggy from getting an upset stomach. Granted, this doesn't happen with all igs, but if I feed Hercules pieces much larger than that, he ends up with what almost seems like a severe case of heartburn and has even regurgitated his food on occasion.
