: :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.

Flavia, please take no offense to this, you have been nice to me and I am just stating my opinion. Maybe where you live you don't have the iguana problem we do here in the states, maybe you just don't want to take more time to an abused ig vs. a new born, or maybe you just want really good looking iggys with no problems, I dont know. You seem like a good mommy regardless of what you want. But here good pet store or not, when one ig sells, more come and they might not get the nice homes you provide for your iggys, they may get homes where they are not taken care of, get sick or maybe even die. I do not want that on my conscience or my hands dirtied because I contributed to it. And like it or not you are contributing to it, whether be a good pet store or bad one. Think about where you are posting, on a public forum that everyone, young and old go to, they hear you say you buy and why you buy and think yeah, I want that, then go out and get one, their friends then want one and so on. How many of these will find a home for life, or have a life? I believe your heart is good, but remember where you are and please look at the big picture. I am not the best writer, not even in college LOL but I hope I am conveying my message well enough.
