: I just got a new baby iguaua about a week ago. I gave it time to settle is to his new cage. I tried to hold him today and after he ran from me for aobut 2 min i finaily caught him. After i put him back in his cage i noticed that he looked stressed and he was a dark green almost brown. Is this normal and should i just keep holding him even though he does not like to be held?
this sounds pretty normal, what kind of set-up do you have for him--
cage size, limbs to climb on, temps, UVB, etc...
what are you feeding it?
Here's a good link on Iguanas that every new ig owner should read and study.
