I think i figured out as to how he got out. I forgot to cover an hole that i made in the roof for a light and then i moved it else where .. as for the temps..for the daylight temps:

Basking are is at 95 and the bottom of the cage is 83
For night time the basking are drops to 85 but the bottom of the cage stays the same. I have one 150W HeatGlow and one 1 75W if I need one for the night time. The other ligts are 36" Iguana 5.0 and 12" from the basking shelf or the iguana.

The diet i'm using is from http://www.anapsid.org/iguana/ and http://www.baskingspot.com/iguanas/ .. fresh vegies and fruit also adding all the other vitemens he will need. For the humidity this will be the 1st test for it. I have spray bottle as well a bigger dish with watter close by the basking spot. Also to help out will be ( well try to if he lets me hehe ) giving baths every night.
I'm new to all of this so any sugestions or advise you can give me would be great..

***************************************************************
:Depending on just how small the ig is it IS possible. You might want to check for other possible escape routes though as well. What's the ambient temp in the room Mike? Basking temp? UV source? Distance from the ig? Diet? Humidity?
