One of my NOID iris, a purple, has put on three large seed pods. does someone want them or should I just let them go?

It's not unusual for the bee pods to be empty or have very few seeds in them.

I've never seen seed pods on my iris before and these are the size of eggs.

Well if they are that large, they most likely have some seeds in them. You should try planting them, it's fun! Moves you to an even deeper level of addiction!!!! Rolling on the floor laughing

I'd advise you to read the thread about starting iris from seeds. It explains the process quite well with comments and ideas from several people.
