I'm going to post a picture of my lil ig...does he look too fat?

You can't overfeed iguanas esp when they are little. Kam was gaining crazy amounts of wieght inbetween vet visits and our vet said that was good for young iguanas.
i didn't think so...he's grown almost two and a half inch's since i got him a few months ago, he has the hot spot (light) where it is around 98 degrees, the rest of the tank is 87, the uv light and a cage that is 3 1/2 by 3 1/2 by 2 for now...his total length from nose to tip of tail is 18 in's....and from nose to vent is around 5 1/2 in's...he eats a variety of greens mixed with shredded sweet pot, apples, mixed veg's... occationally he gets kale, shredded carrots...heck, he eats better than i do...lol
n/p
i'm not sure exaclty, but i'm sure he's under a year old...
