...cause this sweet little guy(like other iguanas), has grow bigger, has a regenerated tail and cannot use his rear legs to climb.
They give it to me cause they do not wanted anymore.

Please, be advised by a trusted person and learn as much as you can before you go and buy a baby iguana, which in 2 years will grow up very big. Learn how to proper care for this small creature. Iguanas are not like dogs, cats and bunnies. They do need calcium and a special reptile lamp which produces UBA/B ultraviolet rays in the spectrum that is beneficial for them. If you think you cannot keep anymore that "sweet little guy" that once you decide to buy, then this lizard will spend the rest of his life (20 years) by searching a home to live and if is very lucky will find someone that wants it and knows how to care for it.

lovely aint it? i witnessed a young girl girl and her aunts buy a golden skink because it was 'cheap' but then when they started adding up all the required accessories, they balked. the aunt said that she wasnt spending the $40 on a UVB lite and her mom could get one for the lizard when she gets home. i sat there shaking my head.
