First and foremost, consider adopting an iguana as opposed to purchasing one. Depending on your location, hatchlings and/or juvinals maybe available. Personally, there are simply too many unwanted iguanas already out there waiting to be "recycled" as it is. Why contribute to an already serious overpopulation in the captive market?

Vicks Ultrasonic Humidifiers are comparable in cost, last 1000x longer than a "fountain fogger" in my opinion, usually run for 24 hours per fill up, and can be plumbed with PVC pipe in order to be able to direct humidity wherever it is needed.

Be careful with staples ANYwhere in the enclosure. More than 10 years ago, I lost my 1st ig Dewey, partially due to a perforated intestine thanks to a staple....
