Iguana eating...

Posted by Mandy on October 22, 2001 at 11:04:28:

I just took in a rescue iggy. I have had many iggys in the past but have never had this much trouble with getting one to eat. I have tryed every salad mix I know and have used. Nothing, not eating a bite. Then I had a thought last night. I tried just some lettuce..he scarfed it down. Just what I was afraid of he has been raised on lettuce only I think. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to switch him over to stuff that is better for him? He won't even try anything else....?????

• Mix small amounts of lettuce with the healthy stuff and see if that doesn't J Nelson 10/22/01 (1)
  • PS...be sure to wean him off the lettuce though over the next several days. JNelson 10/22/01 (0)
