:Well this all started at the pet store I work at. One day I came in and my boss said someone had an iguana for me? So later on they brought this 4.4ft iguana in and showed me. It was big male that looked very stressed. I told them to bring it to me later after work. I do big pythons iguanas are new territory to me. Anyway he came by and brought me the iggie, and it was aggressive which was fine I deal with ceylonese pythons and nile monitors. So I cleaned out a 6ft long tank and put him on cypress mulch like the book said and he still wont eat for me? Is he still stressed? I have bought him every green in the book and bok choi and I mean christ how hard is it to make an iguana feel at home? I took him out a few times he tail whipped the hell out of me so I grabbed him and put him away. I dont think he was used to humans being around that much. He shakes his head all the time( I have no clue what that means ). But I like him and he is surprisingly not that hard to keep. I am working on a taller cage. heres a pic and please give me your opinions!
