: Well, I FINALLY got in to see Classy (Jafeica)! He is doing GREAT!

: Diana, lots of this is from the email I sent you, just in case it looks familiar!

: Well, I just back back from seeing Jafeica. It is really funny what it means, pardon my language, but this is what it mean! "Just another f***ing expense I can't afford". I thought that was funny. He is soooo big now! In the pictures, he is 4 feet long. Back in June, he was smaller than the other iguana, Zipper.

: Jafeica is sooo calm and quiet. Not at all like before when he was quite defensive.

: They get tons of good food all the time though, always have food and water there for them. There are basking lights and shelves up high for them to bask on. They run around the apartment all they like, and this summer, she is having the balcony screened in for them to go lay in the sun in.

: In the pictures, you will see that they both look a bit beat up, that is because they came out of bad homes, as well as they pick on each other sometimes. Jafeica is learning how to socialize like a normal iguana, he is starting to stand up for himself when Zipper decides he wants to be a bother. Jafeica will just stand up (but his belly still stays on the ground!) and say "Go ahead and try me!" He has even learned how to bob his little (well.....not so little!) head up and down when Zipper trys to bother him. Even though the two don't get along all the time, they really do enjoy each others company. They sleep together under the same light and everything.

: As for Jafeica's mouth, which did have mouthrot, it will never heal any more than it is already. His nose it slighty deformed from rubbing his nose on the side of his pathetic little old cage. When you look real close at his lips, you can see a few teeth because his lip has receeded a bit due to the mouthrot.

: I have one question, how come they can stay together, but don't fight? They are both males, but they get along really well. Occaisionally, they will nip at each other, but it is more like mouthing than anything. I know that can progress, but it has actually settled down since they met each other. Are they just lucky to get along?

: Now, I'll try and post some pictures. I know who to post multiple pictures, but I can't really do it. So bare with me! There will be one at a time :) If you want more, please go to community.webshots.com/user/solaris16

: There are more there way down at the bottom of the page.

: Here is the first picture. You'll have to excuse the fact that I'm in it (i'm the younger one)! But it is good size comparison, I'm 5'8". The lady beside me is his new owner, and his friend, Zipper.
