Iguanas need a variety in there diet which includes, Collard greens, escarole, dandelion greens, water cress, Mustard greens, endive, turnip greens, and Kale on an occasion. Kale is not to be feed daily it is hard for them to digest. That is the leafy part of the diet which should make up at least 65% of there diet. Fruits (10%) can include, figs (raw or dried), blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, grapes, mango's, melon, papaya, banana's, and apple. But again fruits should only make up 5-10% of there diet. You can also feed them raw green beans, parsnips, sweet potato, zucchini, yellow squash, Okra (not much of this), snow peas, carrots, asparagus and red peppers (not much of these either, but they love the color red and it is a taste enhancer) On occasion you can give whole grains as a treat. Please do you research before you own an iguana they get very large and require daily maintenance. There are many homeless ones out there due to neglect so please choose you pets wisely!

Do iguanas take care of their babys?

Iguanas do not provide parental care for their young. After laying eggs, female iguanas typically leave them to fend for themselves, and the hatchlings are independent from birth. They must find their own food and avoid predators immediately after emerging from the eggs. This lack of parental involvement is common among many reptile species.

Yes, iguanas generally remain in the same area throughout their lives, particularly if the habitat meets their needs for food, shelter, and nesting.

What is an fact about iguanas?

Iguanas are very interesting ! For starters, they grow super fast and most of their full grown length is in their tail (about two-thirds). Iguanas have salmonella bacteria in their stomach to help them digest food. Sometimes, this salmonella can leave their bodies and get on their bodies. (Always wash your hands after handling an iguana!) Finally, most iguanas can regenerate their tails if they need to.
