I agree with JoeIII....yes uh-huh I really do ;o)
I believe Devo & Dex are in the "getting to know you" phase...singing here..watch out Cirsisue!
I have found iguanas to be little vindictive buggers ..they carry grudges too! always plotting sumthin! ...best way Ive found to toilet training an iguana is thru extinguishing...depending on *where* you want your iguanas to go poop. I used the tub...(but you can use a big cat litter box or rubbermaid 20 gall container...or whatever...enough WARM water (@86 degrees) for their daily swim, bath and poopie. ....get them used to that everyday routine for a few weeks...then ixnay the water and replace with newsapaper....since I used the tub...I then put newspaper in it(no water)...for a few weeks....then I put the newspaper on the *floor* outside the bathtub and put them on that and I'll be dang ....if 9xs outta 10 they didn't make it (like I posted they're vindictive...and have had they're share of *accidents*) yeah right...lol Now its a kick to see em just walk in the bathroom when its time to go and leave a *present* for the maid (me)on the newspaper thats set out. It is quite a project. And they're gonna give ya alot of resistance. Now that I have Feo caged...he makes quite a commotion in his cage if he has pooped...like hey lady...cemmere..I got sumthin with your name on it!
Good luck ...might wanna consider getting in the iguana guano business with all the poop those six igs are gonna generate.
