In Reply to: I could really use some help training my iguana where to poo posted by Drea on December 02, 2000 at 23:20:59:

Chuck was supposedly box trained when I got him, but he hasn't used his box once since i got him. I dont keep him in a cage so I have been putting him in the tub with some warm water every evening when i get home from work, and he will usually go for me in there. Much easier to clean up. If I DONT put him in the tub, I have found that he will find a nice corner, or anywhere else on the carpet that looks good to him. I am going to try water in his litter box, and see how that works.

Anyone else have any tricks?

: hi there. I am a proud iguana owner, but my Bubba is not goingto the bathroom at all where i'd like him to. He used to be litter trained, and he will still go there if i put him there. but now he wont go in the litter box even when i do put him there. instead, he goes on places like my bed. tonight, i came home, and he had went all over in his cage (his cage is sizable too). not only that, but he had it all over him, and all down his tail. i think he may have eaten some because it was at his mouth. if anyone has any suggestions for me, i would really appreciate it. i love my iguana so much, but this is a very frustrating ordeal. thank you very much.
