In Reply to: how can i potty train my iguanas?? posted by dougw36 on February 08, 2002 at 12:53:33:

: I just had a new rug and curtains put in my house and now I am afraid to let my iguanas roam the house. I usually have to wait til they go to the bathroom in the cage then let them out but was wondering if there is a way to potty train them. any ideas? thanks.

Raven is right -- water is a great way to start.

When my iguana was tiny, I started every morning with a warm bath in the sink. As he got bigger, I started one in the tub. It can get sloppy, so I keep a plastic cup in the bathroom to "catch it" so I can put it right in the toilet. If you don't do that, sometimes the ig will splash and break it all up and then it's all over the ig and everything and it's a mess.

My ig goes more than once a day, but I keep a plastic tablecloth covered with a towel on the bed in the room he's in and MOST (not all) of the time he goes on the towel.
