Are they ok to serve as an occasional treat?

That's an absolute no-no. Iguanas don't do well with animal protein and it can be hazardous to their health. If you want to treat the little sucker, give him something sweet and colorful, they go nuts with that kind of things.

Hibiscus flowers are a very good treat if you have them available!

Oh yes. I bought a couple hibiscus plants just for feeding. :-)

Carnations are a good treat. I buy them occasionally for Sammy.
