: I just want to know if you could breed rhino iguanas indoors and if you can hibernate them.Anyone that can help me, i would appreciate it very much.

Breeding Cyclura indoors has been accomplished by a few private individuals and zoos. You would want to set up a LARGE (4'x8' of floor space minimum) cage with ample basking sites (120-130F) and plenty of cage furniture and visual barriers. The pair should be kept together year round and during the winter they should experience a cooling season (ambient temps 80F and basking site 90-95F)> At the onset of spring raise the ambient temps to 90F and the basking to 130F and breeding should occur. Also increasing the humidity at this time is helpful (60-90% relative).
