: hi a 10 gallon tank is too small for 2 baby iguanas they grow real quik by the end of 1 year they will be close to 3 feet<<
We're aware of that. If the tank lasts us 3 months that will be OK. We were looking at cages, and the "Ig's" are too small for any of the cages we saw. We can use the same light fixture with a new cage when the time comes.
>>1 usually wont let the other bask right or eat right they get territorial<<
Yes, we know this too. So far they get along fine, we know that this can change.
I spoke to 2 vets today. They said not to worry if they are dark green. Some are darker than others, also as long as it's eating it is OK. They did say to watch for blackening, and that they could squeeze us in quickly for an appointment if that happens. Thanx for your comments. I do appreciate them.
