Well Double D just got his first leash tonight. He wasnt to bad getting into it but MAN when i first put him down it was like Crazied Iggy. He jumped he fliped, he tossed, turned and just went absoulutly crazy. That took about 10 mins (im sure this is his FIRST leash experience so would this be normal?)I then brought him into the front room where he chased my two year old LOL (He was scared she was scared they went to run AWAY from each other but ended up running the same way so it looked like chase) He climbed up the kids bench for there desk, up my couch onto the back and back down, I set on the floor and he ran right up and climbed onto my lap and set there for a few minutes (I loved it) Then he ran around climbed on my camera bag, up the couch over my husband back onto the back of the other couch. We also got him one of those Iguana Ponchos (I KNOW I KNOW its probably pointless but he looked cute LOL) Im not sure how good it will be as I didnt have it on him long, but thought it might make travel a little warmer for him. We finally got the actual basking light and night basking light (SLEEP FOR BOTH OF US :O)). Another question When you are petting your iggy do they seem to lean into it and close there eyes?? Im taking that as a sign of comfort am I right?? Also we dont have any climbing things yet (have some branches but have to get them in there tomorrow), I bought one of those net like hammocks for iggies but it wont stick to the side of the plastic (going to try again later since I cleaned the cage again maybe it just needs to be wet to stick ??) Okay the question Does your iggies sleep in WEIRD positions??? Last night double d was SOUND ASLEEP with his front lets up on the side of the cage wall, back legs and tummy, and tail on the ground?? I have NO CLUE how he was comfortable but he slept great LOL.
