We have rhubarb growing in the garden now but I have never used it for my bluetongues so my question is can i use rhubarbs as an extra food item and anyone use it?
 
Thanks, someone here in Denmark,who has dragons, said it has some kind of acid in them so I just have to eat them ? and not my bluetongues
 
Regarding HUMANS -The stalks are totally safe to eat. You can even enjoy them raw—but be warned, they're very tart! The leaves are a different story. They contain a chemical called oxalic acid which, when consumed in large quantities, can be fatal. Kidney failure!

Regarding your Lizard - I wouldn't risk it. But as far as actually knowing the facts, I'm also unsure, for all I know the leaves might not eventually cause kidney problems...too risky for me.
