Re: Organic/Inorganic foods? Whats what?!

I haven't fed them anything that isn't organic yet - I was just wondering if anything was safe if it wasn't as my options are rather limited atm. I have just put in a big order from the US so hopefully that will arrive shortly! They are mainly lacking in fruit ! :anon: :oops:
