WHY? I didnt really decide to get them, ok finesse comes first. well all my life
i've never actually seen an iguana (where im from there VERY rare, and the ONLY petstore
in the town dosent sell reptiles) well this one day my bf knew this girl who had just bought
a 5ft ig, and cage, etc. for 100$ off someone else in the town, and when she realized she
couldnt even get near it without her getting mad she sold it too my bf for 50$ (he didnt know
anything about them either) anyways she was in a too small cage,, so then Marcel bulit her a new
one and she moved in there, then we learned about her and knew quite alot, then we had to go
get new lighting cause hers was just plain lights and she had woodchips on the ground, and in her
new cage it needed to be tall so she could climb, (the one she came in was one level) so then we had
her, and then we moved to another town 2 1/2 hours away, so we had to rent a truck for everything and
the cage and then we set that up, then one weekend when I was back in my hometown someone out there
asked him did he want another iguana cause they had one, well they brought it over and it was poor iggy, she
was in a TINY cage so we had to get another cage for her (finesse is really protective and wouldnt let
iggy in) and iggy's tail was broke off before ( you can tell by the growth) and she has burns on her sides
(she came with a heatrock (oh finesse did too) but with iggys heatrock, it didnt just 'heat up" it got HOT
so we unplugged them and used em for decoration. and we fell right in love with them (well Iggy anyways cause
shes right sweet ) but in time we accepted finesse for the grump that she is :)
now we've moved up in Nova Scotia (diffrent province) and we still have them two as free roamers (but we're in the
process of getting a little duplex for them)
and thats basically My story, when we first got Finesse we knew NOTHING and know i would say I know
quite alot!
Thanks !
