i am going to take some pics of my iguana tomorrow. he is eating like CRAZY. he is eating about 2 bowls of food a day! he LOVES his greens. im feeding mostly collard, mustard, and turnip greens. with some cantaloupe. he seems to like the greens better than the fruits. his belly is nice and big. and im finally starting to see his hind legs and tail beef up just a little. with the way he eats he should be like normal within a month or so. i havnt taken pics of him before just because he was so skinny. not only could you see his ribs because he was so skinny. but the skin also caved inbetween each little space from rib to rib. he was quite skinny and weak. he now is very active and alert. yesterday was the first time i had seen him jump. and now today, he's jumping all over the place. his calmness has gone down some. when i go to get him out of the cage for exploration he's not too sure of letting me pick him up. he trots off a little. but i can still get him pretty easy. he then jumps to my shoulder and sits there until we are at the third floor where i let him run around. he's out around 2-3hrs everday. he has a basking spot where he can go and warm up at. he spends atleast an 1hr there just watching everything. he likes to actually follow me around. but like i said, isnt so sure about me touching him. we're going to take him to the vet next week. he seems to have some MBD. but not a lot, he runs around a lot and moves fine. it just seems to me as there is some there. i'll have to get a little video of him running behind me. its real funny. i can walk over somewhere and i'll hear him running behind me, and i'll turn around and sometimes he'll jump on my pants. but touching him is off limits. its pretty funny.
