Thanx for the info, did as you suggested! So from my understanding they are pretty much the same as a reg green ig, just a different color?

Yup!
Personally I don't find them that appealing, but hey, to each man his own taste.

yes thats true, to each his own! personaly I find them very appealing, I dunno why! anyways can you or someone else point me in the direction where I might aquire a baby one? I read in a few post down that petco carried them, but none of the petcos in my area carry them, so is there a breed I might get one from or etc? not looking to spend more then probaly a 100. so any help is great

Sorry pal, no clue where you might find one. Try ProExotics, or other breeders here at Kignsnake who may know where to find one. Google it too.

They are very rare, maybe your local PetCo can order one for you. Don't expect it to be as cheap as a green iguana.

Stay away from albino iguanas.

Why should you stay away from albino iguanas?

I looked into this a little and found http://www.greatwhitereptiles.com/?page=aboutus

These are beautiful creatures but I can't see the point in supporting a breeder as opposed to adopting an already unwanted iguana.
