Help!! Desert Iguanas

Posted by Ian on December 12, 1998 at 14:51:41:

Hi there,
I know most of this area is about greens, but I need help with my desert iguanas!!!
I have 3.1.4, the 4 being captive bred this summer. None of them are eating too well.
The large juvenile male is the only one holding his own. Everyone else is losing weight.
I have had the big ones since June in an outside pen, and they did well, even digging their own burrows,
and attacking the food plate when I placed it in there. Now they eat very little, the only thing that they will always definitely
eat are dandelion flowers, but it is winter. One hatchling is doing well, but the others
have grown very little and eat little, only coming out to bask for an hour or so a day. I
don't want to lose any of them, they are warm enough.
Please respond if you can offer any tips.
THanks,
Ian
