Default Greetings from Santa Barbara: looking for bananas!
Greetings everyone, my names is Trent and I am the animal nutritionist for the Santa Barbara Zoo. I am currently searching out additional sources of plant browse for our animals. Banana leaves make an excellent natural source of fiber for many of our animals. If you are interested in working with me and helping feed our animals please email me.

HaHa ... I'm fighting with my chickens and ducks to keep my banana plants growing. The chickens have found banana leaves to be good eating. It funny to watch a chicken jumping up & down to grab a leaf. ... The ducks (Peking) will strip a 3 or 4 ft plant to the ground sheaf by sheaf. (not good; bad duck). ... now if I just get them back to eating collard greens to I grow just for them.

oh ... WalMart sells banana leave at about $7 per pound. haha

Greens might be easier to source locally and/or get someone to grow them just for the zoo.
