Josh just called me from his cell phone to say Walmart is out of Collards, and should he substitute turnip greens this time. I said I thought I've heard that they are good/okay to feed, but in the end, he opted to buy kale because he said the turnip greens had little plant-hair-things on the backs of the leaves.

I'm wondering do any of your igs eat turnip greens? Do they seem to like them? Or am I mistaken and they're not even on the list of approved foods. Our igs don't seem to like mustard greens as much as collards, so we're looking for a good subsitution when collards aren't available.
Thanks,
Diana
