In Reply to: How long should Lizzy be at one and half years old? I saw a male last night at three and about 4 feet. posted by Linda on February 25, 2000 at 09:29:50:

the poor 4' iguana in a tank! igs NEED to climb + need *much* more space than that!!!! (pass along the link to MK's site to the landlord ok?!?)

Lizzy sounds like she's doin' fine~ tho she too, would appreciate more oppourtunities to climb ... but if you're reading MK's site, you're headed in the right direction + should be ok! (*grin*)

a more accurate way to measure igs is from their nose to their vent ... because so many igs *do* lose part of their tail ... but as you can see from Melissa's table of size/age, there is a huge variation + it's really not possible to say how big an ig sould be at what age ... some are just smaller and/or grow slower + not necessarily cuz they're not properly cared for, it's just who they are ... then you have monsters like iZ who hit 5' (20" nose-vent aka svl) when he was 2.5 yo ... some kids just grow faster ... LOL ...

best wishes!
