I have a couple of questions for you....does this Pet Store have a internet site or address? If they do it would be helpful I'd like to talk with them.
It could be many things....and probably a combination of more then one thing wrong with the igs. Not only do they stress out big time while being shipped but if they health isn't good to start with, their chances of living are most likely down to the wire...meaning if proper attention isn't done immediately, most likely they won't survive. Dehydration and proper diet sounds like some of the problems these young igs have. Baby iguana needs as far as a diet goes..is far more important then with older Iguana's. I hope this Pet store has learned a lesson from this and will no longer purchase igs. It's very sad to read articles about the conditions of igs from the whole sellers to the shipping to the pet store. Hopefully help is coming from these poor igs....people are trying to get the word out that Pet stores should discontinue carrying igs. Please e-mail me if you can get the address of their business or a internet address. I will be tackful with them...but would like to send them some information for them to read.
