 Feading green beans/snap peas/peas need some advise

Hello ig lovers!!!

I’ve been feeding my ig some string/green beans but i remove the beans and only feed the pod/skin...
is it ok to feed him the beans?i rely a lot on the food chart of the green iguana society but it does not say if you leave the beans in or to take them out...
also,peas are not on the chart and i’ve read and seen(from you tube) peas being fed to the igs.

appreciate the clarifications on these issues,thanks in advance!!!

:)

if you take the beans out, they’re not green "beans" anymore...

the whole bean, beans and all.
the whole pea, peas and all.

peas are very good for them. they’re listed on the chart as "snap peas," but essentially, a pea is a pea is a pea.

green beans and peas both are staple veggies.

yes, hon. the seeds won’t hurt him a bit. i don’t even peel the hard squash for my iggy salad; i just shred everything.

Sugar snap peas made a HUGE difference in Godzirra! He’s doubled his muscle mass and now has a nice thick tail. Very noticeable after less than a month. Like a miracle for him.
