I went and looked at the www.basking.com/iguanas/igbook that lists Ca:P ratios for oranges and grapes. Oranges are about a 2:1, but grapes have a pretty bad ratio. You just may want to give Kiwi a grape as a treat once in a while. We all know that iZ's mom give an orange slice or two every night as a treat. I think that you just have to remember that fruits are a very low percentage of the igs diet needs. Bananas aren't really that good either and Sneakers loves them. I just give her a little bit once in a while as a treat when she is out with me. Even then she only gets a bite or two. I don't think that there is to much that is really bad unless someone started using it as there basic diet. Go to the basking spot and they have a huge list. They included skinned and unskinned grages.

I couldn't find the Ca:P list on MK's site. Maybe someone will post it for you.
