: : everything was fine til i gave him a peice of washed prickly pear ( cactus fruit) its been 5 hours since he ate and his greens are in his bowl. could it have gave him an upset stomache? it was his fist time with fruit

: I wish I could answer that, mine is absolutely

: INSANE for those things, in fact sometimes

: I put a little chunk in a bag with the greens

: and calcium, and shake it up so the scent

: gets on the greens..lol. I hope it blows over.
