Hey guys. I hope all of you can help me. I just adopted a 5 foot green male iguana. He has been kept in a small room without any natural sunlight. He is very yellow and brown. There are some green spots but not much. I don't know much about iguana's but I seem to be learning quickly. My questions are...
1) What kinds of greens do I feed him and what should I feed him reguarly.
2) If I keep him outside during the warm summer months is that good way to bring some color back to his skin?
3) Also he seems to have rubbed his nose raw trying to get out of the room he was in. I have been putting neosporine (sp) on it to help it heal. Is this ok to use?

I appreciate you time folks. I just don't wanna do something wrong and hurt this guy.

Thanks again

Chuck

PS) I have a photo of him attached so please take a look at him and let me know what some of you think. Thanks again

Here's his picture
