We're building a large cage for our baby iguana that's coming home to us next week but what size temporary cage would be good?
Thanks.

They say it has to be at least twice the ig's total lenght ,but I still think it's too small.
If you guys are building a cage, I think it's better for you AND for the ig if you build a large cage that could house the ig throughout its whole life. Because hatchs and juvenile igs grow so fast (with proper diet, heat, Uvb), you will have to keep building larger cages and by the time he become an adult you will have hundreds of cages in your house.
Also, igs don't like moving, and everytime you move him from one cage to another it will probably refuse to eat for a couple days, and bla bla bla. So, I would build a large cage already.
But that's what I think... Good luck with your new little guy and take care,
Later,
Dan
