Surprisingly Skye reacted the complete opposite! The show did him the world of good. He actually let me change the water in his "litter box" today with out even tail whipping or trying to run. Its also the first time he has used the water to "go" in so over night he litter box trained himself. I just hope the idea sticks in his little blue head :) When I put the water container back in his enclosure he even let me move his tail out of the way with out panicking.

Excalibur has settled down now and back to normal. He has been giving me the "evil eye" but I bribed him with a few small portions of bannana's on top of his regular diet twice a day. The other strange thing about him is that his appetite increased after the show and he is pooping more because he is eating more. I changed his tiolet water three times in a day yesterday. I don't know if I just like to THINK that he heard people talking about his scrawny legs and the fact that some lady thought he was female... and wants to do something about it... ( I guess its a macho thing ) or perhaps he is jealous of how meaty and healthy Mel looked... the only other possibility is that those rare bannana 'bribes' are making him eat much more. He scarfs those down then finishes off the bowl of greens and squash as well.

All in all I think the show did both Iguana's good and many Iguana owners good as well. I had fun!
