I am taking care of an Iguana who has been previously neglected. He is about 4' long, is mostly brown rather than green (he used to be all green), a little lethargic, and his cage is too small. We have given him liquid vitamins, lots of greens(Mustard, Turnip, Collard, Romaine)and he is now a little testy and has not produced a stool in 36 hours. We are letting him run in his own room (10' by 12'). We have a lamp for heat and a UV lamp for "surrogate sunlight", what should I do? He has me worried, I am growing attached to the "critter".
