back in 93-94 my mom and dad used to runb there own wholesale reptile company the only trouble was it was in our garage. Imagine a cage full of 400-2000 iguanas getting a hole in it the size of a basktball'it sucks especially when the way you realize this is your moms friend a few houses down calls to report her daughters found an iguana swimming in there back yard pool.Immediatly we all rush down to find hundreds of iguanas roming free through our garage, backyard, and a couple could be seen sunning on the roof of our house.Disastor out of roughly 525 iguanas in the order only about 200 or so didnt escape or were captured,and when i say captured i mean my dog found iguanas runiing up the walls of our house for a good 4 months or so.
The other interesting thing to happen was when about 25 adult balls made the escape of a lifetime and somehow at least 10 of them ended up in our shed, when i went to pull out the lawnmower here is a group of 3 sitting under it like they belonged there. and another 7 or so found in various parts of the shed and one under a pot in the backyard.
