Yes to all these ....fed in moderation as flowers have higher phosphorus than calcium content. YOUNG mulberry leaves are also great to feed an ig as well as hibiscus leaves.Timothy hay is also another EXCELLENT protein/calcium addition for younger iguanas MUCH MUCH better than alfalfa pellets or rabbit pellets because of Vitamin D3 in them. I don't feed timothy hay to my older iguanas anymore (^protein) but continue to give it to my cyclura babies. Kudos to your vet with such an informative diet sheet.
