Alright. I'll start with a sixty watt light bulb and buy one of those thermometer guns. Those sound really neat, I wish I would've considered that before getting someone to go get my a normal thermometer. Here, our bath doesn't work but we have a tub so we take showers. My mom insisted that I not bathe him in the actual tub, which I couldn't say much against. So I put a tub..In the tub..And had him sit in there for a good while 'til the water got cold a few times. He didn't like it 'til he actually sat in it and realized it wasn't that bad. But he started to climb and jump out so I went ahead and had my friend watch him while I cleaned his cage. He didn't poop or anything, so I dunno if we really need to clean it. Either way, I'm going to put some bleach through it tonight.
Also, I'm having trouble getting him to eat. I know that the food I'm giving him is just for herbivores. I read the description and is says it even has an alluring scent for them. He doesn't seem slightly interested in it and it doesn't look like he's even ate in a few days. I switch food out every day, of course.
Since I got the lights and heat in order, my iguana's been acting extremely active. Today he's been climbing all over me, up until he gets to my head, where he sometimes tries to jump off. I watch him in his cage and he always wants out and to play and spend time together but I've been busy kinda busy. In any case, he's aways running around in his cage. I got him something to hide in today. It's in the middle of his cage but he can go through it both ways or stand on top of it. One weird thing is that he's no longer pooping in his water. But I can still tell he's been in i.
