Good for him. My Uro "Buddha" loves them too.  They shouldn't be a sole source of nutrition, but they are good food.

Re: Dandy Lions "weed"
Dandelions are also good for people, like in a salad. Also you can make wine with them, and I read you can make coffee with the roots, but I havent tried that. They are pretty sweet, but check for ants.

Yes and just don't gather them from road side either as they will absorb oil, antifreeze, gas, etc....... from cars that are leaking them.

Re: Dandy Lions "weed"
Most, if not all, veggie eating lizards love them and they supply great nutritional values.
Check them out here - http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/
BTW it is Dandelion.
