Hello, I have recently moved and my one 3 year old green iguana is not eating well(at all really). I have set up his night lights to keep him warm, his UV lights and basking lights are all functioning well. I thought at first he was just upset over the move, but the other one is doing okay. He also had changed colors somewhat getting a almost orange shade on his legs, and his body has faded to a almost tan color, this has been happening gradually. I feed them 85 % greens (turnip, mustard, collards etc.) 10% veggies and 5% fruit and flowers. I also give them the calcium powder on their food, and vitamins in their water. I am at a loss as to what to do. He is getting mighty thin, he is pretty lathargic too. anyone with any advise please let me know. I suspect some inturnal problem (kindey of liver) any advise would be appreciated,, thank you Janet
