My girl had Romaine and green leaf lettuce, red bell pepper, zuccini, green beans, and soaked alfalfa tablets this morning, Tomorrow it will probably be collard greens, green beans, grated sweet potato, and grated parsnip, with a dusting of Miner-All calcium suppliment.

Katrina

ok. but is there one or 2 perticular things that should always be there? number one, i thought lettuce was bad, even roman. i think it was even in this forum that i was told kale is sapposta be the number one thing.
thanx

So long as you have a varied diet, few things are totally off limits. Dark, leafy lettuces are fine for occasional use. Again, the key is variety. Check out Kaplan's site.

Katrina

Maybe you were thinking collards as opposed to kale?

Collards are very good for them but kale should be an OCCASIONAL treat only. High in oxalates & goitrogens.

Here's another great site...

Good luck.

It's all about variety and moderation. One veggie might be high in Vitamin XYZ, but also high in calcium oxilates. Another might be low in oxalates and high in Vitamin ABC but high in goitrogens. Feed a variety from week to week, and your iguana should be OK. Kaplan's website has a list of possible ingredients for a salad. Winter squashes are preferable to carrots, sweet potatoes, or yams, though, for the orange veggie.

I forgot to mentino fruits, too. Those are used in moderation.
