I have had iguana since August -97, so he/she should be big now, but it�s only 2 ft long STL. I think I have found a reason why he won�t grow as quickly as he should...
In June he pooped every time I took him outside to get some sun, even every day and he has growed as much as 1,5 inch from June ! This is really amazing �cause usually he poops every 2-3 WEEKS ! Of course, I bath him, but it won�t help. I was wondering what might explain this ? He has a quite big cage (39 x 39 x 18 inch. )with a basking stations ( degrees 38-41 C, with 26 C in the corner ) + Zoomed�s Reptile UVB-Light and a normal tube, humidity varies from 60 to 100%. He get�s 20-30 different kinds of veggies, fruits and greens + Vitamin and calcium supplement..
So, could you tell what might be wrong ? Is he "abnormal" and needs more UV- tubes in his cage so that he could poop :) ?
Thanks, Iggygirl
