Corucia zebrata
Ctenosaura
Cyclura(?)
Dipsosaurus
Iguana iguana

Uromastyx

Thanks.

Hi, I'm sure theres some we missed but I would also like to add alot of agamas are veggie eaters as well.

I have several species and they all get salads as well as SOME insects.
Black agama (L. Stellio stellio) Clown agamas, sheild tail agamas, red heads..... salad/veggie eaters.

Many of the veggie eaters, eat insects occasionally too, but main staple are veggies/ flowers/some fruit

Hi!

Well, black agama was new to me. Someone said that bearded dragons also eat very much veggies as adult.

Beardies eat a ton of buggies when small, but as they grow you are supposed to introduce them to salads, as adults it becomes the Main meal, with a few bugs on the side,
