I regually feed them lettuce leaves and they can actually rip it appart. Using that as an example they can and do eat soft greenry. But some plants could have a not so nice a taste for them Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do. I VOTE DO YOU if not WHY NOT?
