iguana home gets remodeled

[garterguy]

sryi dont have a pict. but i will be getting a scanner soon.we are redoing our kitchen and were taking out an unwanted closet.my iguana was pushing 3 ft so i had the idea to make a built in cage!we put green turf in it and even put some tropical plants in it and small trees and bulit a small pool and feeding dish.there is screen door in the front so ican open and close it easily.i am also thinking of putting some anoles or leopard geckos in there with him.my next plan is to make another one of these cages for my garter snakes!

It sounds like a lovely new home for the iguana.

Please don't put any other species in with him, however!! Iguanas have a hindgut full of beneficial bacteria which they need to digest their plant-rich diets. This bacteria can be easily killed off by the natural gut flora other species carry and that would be very bad.
