Too much greens?

My one girl is always eating more than the other, I don't know if it's a dominant issue, or because she's pregnant, or because she's older (prob a combination of all things) but when I gave them greens tonight she ate almost all of it - I would give some to Bean and Marley would go and take from her. Bean didn't even seem to care really. She munched on a bit of greens herself a little while after and seemed to have her full, but just want to know if too much is bad? It's romain lettuce, but will too much give them runs?

Re: Too much greens?

They should be fine. I think you're probably right on target thinking that being pregnant and therefore hormonal and dominant is why Marley was eating more. If you feel that Bean isn't getting enough, you can always give her a bit extra when you hold her for laptime when Marley can't take it from her.
