Believe me, i did research and i know exactly what you are saying. I do feed my iguana greens, veggies and some fruit when i can it. Here most of the veggies this time of the year i wouldn't even feed my kid (yes, they look that bad) so why would i feed them to my iguana?

Until you get a DVM, go through at least 4 years of school and become a certified herp vet I will continue to listen to my vet. I'm sorry, i know you've probably been versed in Iguana parantage for a while, and as with any kid, we all have different ways of raising it.

I do see your point that it is unnatural diet. We ourselves consume foods that are very unnatural too. Like i said before, i only use the commercial diet during winter when it's very hard to find fruits and veggies that are good looking. However, i have conversed with my vet on this issue, and she said my food was just fine.
