The love goddess

So I have this beautiful Cyclura Caymenensis Lewisii hybrid. I SWEAR she knows she is a special thing in the room. Not only has she intimidated the meanest green iguana I have ever owned, but she has made others fall rapturously in love with her.

Case in point. I had a rescue green iguana that really would NOT eat fresh greens. AT ALL. No matter how hard I tried. After 1 month of quarentine I moved him into the main room. Put him in the cage next to her. With in a day he was preening for danzig. I would feed all the permanant residents first then the rescues. When I would feed him he would watch to make sure she began eatting. Once she would start eatting he would rush down and eat his fresh greens. Then run back up to his shelf. You could almost hear his sighs when he looked at her. He has done well ever since he has gone to his new home.

Case 2. Since august I have had a bearded dragon that would NOT eat greens. He wasnt very active but ate well and has (as most beardies do) a great handlability. So this past weekend I placed him in the cage next to danzig. I swear the next day he ate his green. He has also been showing how manly he is. He also gazes at her all day. He has no interest in any of the other animals in the room. He just has eyes for her.

Behold the power of the Cyclura!

I have one female rhino iguana, that for whatever reason ? Is more attractive to the males. When letting the males out to free roam, they will often run over to her cage and try to get in. One female has lost the loyalty of her mate, she attacks when she sees the attractive female.
