Baby iguanas

Baby Green Iguana
Caring for a baby iguana isn’t too much harder then caring for an average lizard. Once you buy one, let it get used to the new environment and cage before holding it. Feed then 1-2 times a day with the best variety of iguana friendly greens. Handle them as much as an hour a day, or a as often as possible, so your iguana can get used to you.

My iguana bit me!

Well its been a few weeks! I just arrived home from a weeklong trip to Florida. My iguanas on my bed looking normal and everything, then he runs up my arm and bites my earlobe, he’s about 3 feet, it really hurt and bled for a while. HAS ANYONE ELSE BEEN BITE BY THEIR IGUANA?

Iguanas as pets

The subject I choose was iguanas. The reason I chose iguanas is because I have a pet iguana named Apollo at home who is starting to out grow his habitat. Also the subject of iguanas is very interesting and fun to blog about. Also if your thinking about getting an iguana there are many important things you have to keep in mind, for example they grow to be about 6 feet in length, and need a huge cage. Also If neglected they can become very dangerous. When threatened they will use their tails to defend their territory, a full grown iguana tail whip can snap a humans leg in two, and bites usually require stitches. Its very important to take them out as often as you can, so they don’t become aggressive.
