Re: Please! ASAP!

I hear if they are handled alot when young they can be pretty cool. A friend of mine had a biiiig one when I was in elementary school and he was pretty awesome. We would take him outside to the park and stuff and he would slide down the slide and we would push him in the baby swing and he never snapped, tail whipped, or got mean or stressed. When we were done we'd take him insode and feed him treats and he always ate and shed normally. =)

However....I really think he was a minority of his kind XD

Re: Please! ASAP!

My sister is loving him/her lol. I picked him/her (won't know till later) at the repticon for her for $20 as far as I've heard, it hasn't even shown aggression. She is even going to be building a custom enclosure. I'll upload a pic when I can.

Re: Please! ASAP!

So last night, I caught Glitch looking around when. I was checking the Temps. Snapped a pic and let her be. She didn't shy either.

They do. I had a male green iguana for 10 years and he was never aggressive aside from getting shots. He was happy to just chill on our shoulders or lap.

They are beautiful as well I honestly prefer the normal green ones rather than the red or blue ones they sell. Here is a pic of him/her

Something about how fiji doesn't want them exported, so the US has deemed them illegal to own since the only way to get one would be to poach them and then violate the Fiji law of exportation.

Re: Please! ASAP!

Love the name you chose! Glitch suits her perfectly! Glad things have calmed down for you also. Let us know how she's doing in a few days. Sounds like you're getting things under control.

Thankyou^.=.^ she reminds me of Penelope on Wreck it Ralph
Yah, I used the ir to check the temps inside when I checked the water and replaced it. Mid 80s in warm side(floor temps), upper 70s for cool side. Using the space heater at medium heat to keep it up. That room is messing with the house thermostatDX
