In some areas iguanas are now a part of the nature of things. Diet should consist of greens, collard, mustard, and turnip as main staple. Lettuce has no nutrional value at all. Shreed up the food to small pieces. Bell peppers, green beans, ive got a whole list on my website try checking it out. As for docile that takes time and handling but if this is a wild iguana you dont want them tamed. Good luck. What are you housing it in? What do you have planned for the rest of his life? More info on my website linked below.

: Ooops, it didn't post my whole message, here is the whole thing.

: About a week ago someone I know found an Iguana on the wall of his Garage. It's about a foot long, including tail. 5 inches snout to vent length. Very brightly coloured, with a blue head. I'm asuming it's a juvenile green iguana , but I'm not 100% sure. Anyway, since I have some herp experience, I'm looking after it until I can find it a new home. Right now I'm feeding a mixture of Lettuce, spinach, and carrot. I know this is not an ideal diet and was hoping for suggestions as to what is. Also he is incrediblt aggressive, and when I try to change the food or water he puffs out his throat, and continuosly whips me with his tail. Is there any way to make him more docile? Please answer soon. Thanks for the help
