The description on our blog describes some of the animals that live at our house but not all. We have two lizards, Climber a fat tailed gecko (who, ironically, likes to hide in her rock all day and can't climb) and Gleep bearded dragon -- both belong to our son. Climber eating strictly crickets does not take part in the bounty that is our garden but Gleep does so with enthusiasm and gusto.
By far his favorite is the strawberries. He gets diced strawberries in his parsley. He will toss out the parsley in search of sweeter treats, strawberries, carrots and grape chunks. The parsley was grown just for him and he actually does prefer it to the store bought parsley. We definitely need to plant more next year.
Additionally we're going to grow more cilantro and bell pepper. While the dragon will certainly enjoy that, we're huge fans of peppers and fresh herbs and so we are not dedicating our garden to the creation of supreme pet food.
The rule still applies. Grow what you eat, because you need to eat what you grow.
