I know that iceberg lettuce is a big no-no, as it has no nutritional value. BUT, as it is mostly water, would a few chopped leaves mixed in help with his fluid levels? Just curious.

the amount of water in lettuce is only *slightly* more than the amount of water in collards (+ prob'ly other greens but i just looked up collards) ... so wouldn't really gain anything by giving him letttuce ...

one of my favorite links is below ~ you can do a search on darned near any food you can think of and it'll tell you what the nutrients are ... *kewl*
