well to day i found out sumthing new. when hand feeding (or trying to)and it is unseccesful, wipe the juice of your finger. tiny gave me a nice scare today.

i was trying to get him to try a grape, and it didnt work. then i went to pet tiny. i usualy let him lick me first so he doesnt get spooked. well this time i had juice on my finger, and ever so gently, he tried to eat my finger.

i know it wasnt agrresion because he has bit me before, and he had a startled and confused look on his face.
i just thought you guys might like to hear this

New Iguana Named "Tiny"

Nursed back from dehydration!

I was hand feeding my 2 year old iggy(Sam) once and instead of giving her 1 piece at a time I had a bunch of butternut squash in the palm of my hand. She really loves butternut squash and accidently bit the palm of my hand while attacking the squash. It didn't feel good at all, but it was my own fault. Just something you might not want to try.
