Thank you Manny. That is generally my advice when trying to switch igs to dry. Try feeding a mix if dry and greens. And if that doesn't work, don't feed them and they will eventually eat the dry - guaranteed, but most think if their iguanas miss two days of feeding they'll die - lol. Iguanas can go two months with no food if healthy and suffer no ill effects. I had a stubborn green once and would only pick the greens out of the bowl, so I got fed up and
left only dry and water in the cage and after 7 to 10 days it did eventually eat it. Another plus, is firmer stools/easy to clean and if you leave a bowl of uneaten greens, they rot and smell. Dry food can sit in the bowl for weeks unless it gets wet.
