Tarzan has been eating very little, unless I sit there and shove the food dish down his throat, he wants nothing of it. (of course I don't actually SHOVE it! LOL)
I have tried and tried, but I am not sure what is going on. . .
He's too young and too male (atleast I think so, but you know how they just LOVE to pull a sex change on us!) to be gravid, and since he's not eating, he's lost some weight, ok a lot. I'm thinking that it could be because he recently lost one of his nails, but I don't think that that would be it. . .
He has been living in and around my window sill, I modified it to his liking (lights and all) because his cage has gotten too small, and his upcomning 7'x6.5'x3' cage has not been started yet because I haven't gotten all of the "ingredients" for his little mansion.

SO, to sum it all up, things here have been pretty crummy, I'm crossing ym fingers and toes; hoping that he'll get better, SO DARN WORRIED! but I"m not sure if *I* can take it anymore, I'm sure that iguana's go through these "starve myself so my human can go crazy" spells, but I can't take it anymore, I'm SOO worried!
