Well, I am going to make her UV light closer to her and I'm not sure about an outdoor cage yet. I have a side porch (with screen windows of course) and in September, after the yard sale, I might put stuff in there and let it be an iguana room for a couple hours a day (and just keep decorating it more and more with time). Maybe in the winter I could even put a heat source in there so the iggy could still go in there. The porch is about the size of a small/medium sized bedroom so Zabouri will have to let me be able to catch her before she gets that room.

: You can rig her cage so she can be 12 inches or closer to a Zoomed Reptisun 5 light (what I did) or you can buy that Active UV light OR you can build a cage outside for the summer and get natural sunlight (which is the best).

: A combination of one of the lights and some time outside everyday or a few times per week would also be a good option. None of these options may be easy for you, but just pick one and do it anyway....pick one that will be the best long term solution for you. Good luck.
