: I just brought home my Iguana yesterday,who was given to me by a
: friend who couldn't take care of him any longer.She has him in a
: 10 gallon tank witch is way to small for him but I can't change
: him into his new big tank until tonight. Anyway I brought him home
: and he was fine,2 hours later he started to freak out by lashing
: out,slaming his body against the glass,running(well trying to)
: around. I will take him out and try to comfort him but he lashes
: his tail at me and gapes his mouth open. Could this be stressed
: related? Who long will it last and what can I do to mellow him out?
: Wenmar
I want to thank you all for responding to my call
of help! To the question of is he small,no he isn't.
Godzilla is about 3 feet long. I have read that they
can get up to 6 feet and I'm prepared for that.
I hope!!!! I took your advice and put newspaper
all around his cage.I also changed his feed
and he won't eat. My friend used to feed him
store bought iguana food and I have heard
that it wasn't good enough.So I mixed him up
a salad:1/2c.green beans,1/2c.parsnip,1/2c.squash,
1/2c.alfalfa pellets,and 1/4c.fruits
I also fed him collard greens and romain lettuce.
Why won't he eat? Should I go back to the store
bought stuff,just so he won't starve?
