Default kinds of lettuce that are safe for Syrians?

Hello! I just bought some lettuce seeds mostly for myself to grow and I was wondering if this kind is safe? It is 'burpee brand' Lettuce, black seeded simpson. I also bought some marigolds to start my hamster garden I have a few other herbs that I am going to plant for him and myself as well.

tHANK YOU

I never feed "iceberg" lettuce. Mainly, we go for things like baby spinach, kale, cabbage. Sometimes a "spring mix" that has radicchio and a little romaine.

The darker green, the better.

I believe 'little gem' and 'romane' are both safe, altho lettuce itself is low in nutrients and its mostly water, the only time ive used it was to try and shift a bowl blockage.

mine love spring greens, its £1 for a large bags worth, normally in 2 large stems, or several small ones. I get these for the buns, so the hams get a leaf ripped into their daily veg
