so mooch, my iguana, is a bit of a picky eater. I really want him to eat more variety but other than mustard greens, apples, carrots, celery, and some other veggies im having a hard time to get him to not pick a favorite.


what do you usually feed your iggy that is well rounded and balanced

Whats wrong with the diet your giving him? Just curious, I don't much about iggies.

Have you tried kale and dandelion greens?

i havent done dandelion greens yet but ive read conflicting things about feeding kale in that its high in some things and should be fed sparingly. My issue is no 2 pages say the same thing

I have given mine escarole, collard greens, turnip greens, apples, watermelon, grapes, bananas, dandelion greens (I've heard they can have the flowers too), green beans, carrots, mustard greens, various lettuces. He's a piggy and not too picky :p I hear things like Kale, spinach, carrot tops, celery stalks, cauliflower and broccoli should only be given occasionally because they're higher in some things than others.

I thought that this page seemed to have some pretty good information.

There is another member her that is heavily into iguanas. I believe the screen name is Wildheart.
