Hi everyone.
I was wondering. Beardies can eat mulberry leaves. But can they eat the fruit also.
They can eat blackberries / raspberries as treats but I cant find anything on the mulberry fruit.
This is the nutrition facts I could find on mulberries
• Carbohydrate (in the form of sugars, mainly glucose and fructose) - 7.8 to 9.2%
• Protein (with essential amino acids) - 15% to 28%
• Fatty acids like linoleic, stearic, and oleic acids - 0.4 to0.5%
• Malic acid, producing sour taste - 1.1 to1.9%
• Fiber - 0.9 to1.4%
• Calcium - 1.8 to 2.4%
• Phosphorus - 0.14 to 0.24%
• Potassium - 1.90 to 2.87% in leaves, 1.33 to1.53% in young stems
• Magnesium - 0.47 to 0.63% in leaves, 0.26 to 0.35% in young stems
and the 2 compared (each is per 140 gram / 1 cup serving)
Almost forgot. Mulberries are edible. The birds, deer, bushbabies and we (Me / my kids and everyone near a mulberry tree) love them
