Update on Baby Desert Iggy!

BillsIggys Oct 22, 2003 03:51 PM

Thanks for your replys on sick baby Desert Iguana. Yesterday he was very active, wanting to get out of his cage. He likes to be outside in the sun. He was active and alert looking at every car, walker, bird flying, and lawn mowers. He even ate two small wax worms. This morning he was trying to get out of the box before the light got turned on. But then he slowed down about noon and was half a sleep the rest of the day. I thought maybe he was trying to go into brumation as well, but that don't account for the high white blood cell count. He has days of inactivity, then activity. Is what gets me is when he was at the pet store he was very active running around the cage and trying to get out. The very next day at home he quieted down, and don't run around much since we got him. Maybe he is like us when we have been sick and start feeling better we want to do things, we over do it, then we tire real easy and have to slow down till we completely recover. Bill
