Hey Vanessa,

I really like the way the sections of your site read. They were well written in a friendly manner and were easily understood. Some sites get a little technical for the layman.

Some suggestions though, you mention that keeping a ig in a small enclosure will stunt their growth. I believe that small enclosures, in and of themselves, don't stunt growth. It is the other bad animal husbandry that is usually found when an ig is being kept in too small an encl by someone who doesn't know what they are doing that stunts the growth. You might want to remove that as (believe it or not) some bonehead might think that is a way to keep their ig small.

In the food section you might want to review your list of foods. I may be wrong but I think some of those are on most people's feed occasionally lists, not as staples. Also you list dandelion greens above and then dandelion flowers below is something that petals only may eaten. I also wouldn't mention the occasional cricket that Lou eats. Even though you put right after that igs should not be feed meat, people might not connect the two and think crickets are acceptable.

Your housing section was great. You left out freeroaming as an option. Even if you have no experience with this you might want to mention it.

In the heating section you may want to mention UVB (I know, I know the bulbs are not used for heating) People might think that just providing bulbs for heat is enough.

Let me say once again how much I liked you site. It truly is one of the more user friendly ones. The info was easy to read and pick up. Let us know when you add more sections and pictures. I think the more sites out there, the more info out there. Education is the key.
