Ferns

Hi all

Is it ok to plant ferns in my Iguana cage?

Thanks.

Yes, but even tree ferns are very delicate and their leaves break easily, so if you have a large iguana he is probably going to tare the plant apart very soon. I would rather go for a ficus tree or something similar that is safe.

Actually a ficus tree will be at the top of my list because it's not poisonous and eating the leaves are not a problem. It's also a cheap plant readily available and you get many sizes and shapes. Those bonsai ficus trees are very attractive looking as well.

I have a baby iguana, about 20cm head to tail. Are the common garden ferns poisonous?
