Hi Xta,

Long time no see. Mader lists baby frozen lima beans as a food for herbivorous reptiles on page 126, table 14-12, in 'Reptile Medicine and Surgery'. This URL is old but they are also listed at http://www.baskingspot.com/igbook/table1.html as an acceptable food item as are grapes and bananas. Mader also lists bananas but not grapes.

I can say that in 6 years I have seen no ill effects from feeding mine moderate amounts of these foods.

Happy Herping, Iguana03
