too!The few days iglet will not have past traumas and dont hate humans yet.The new born iglet will have more chances to be healthy and will be more easy to tame.Knowing what I know know,if I didnt have any iguana i would by a new born one from a farm or from a good petshop.No rescues for me please!!Im too much attached to my pets to take the chances to rescue a sick or a crazy one!!I rescued Godzilla but he was caught from the wild and 100% healthy!!No past traumas or sickness!!But thats only my humble opinion.

:Hey don't get down on yourself. I think we've all done the same thing. I bought Sleestack too...although the pet store had proper lighting and food so it wasn't the worst kind of store. At the time I don't think anyone could talk me out of it because I had rescued before and my rescue had died (and I was heartbroken...convinced a healthy non-rescue was what I needed). I was just being emotional.
