Justin pretty much everything is ok...once in awhile. I'd have to say...stay away completely from rhubarb and fruit seed pits...some foods better than others...strawberries are one of those not so great fruits to use just because of the phytochemical oxalic acid and more phosphorus than calcium in em...oxalates bind to calcium and IGUANAS NEED THEIR CALCIUM!!
so...here's the USDA Nutrient Database link...on em check em out yerself....better berries would be like rasberries or blackberries to give him, so make sure he at least shares some of those strawberries with YOU!!
