A couple of reasons:

One is that iguanas get most of their water through their greens. It is good to spray their greens. Pellets cause dehydration. This is hard on the kidneys.

Another reason is that pellets are loaded with oats and corn. The calcium/phospherus content is not right.

Pellets may be used for vacations. My vet says to add water.
