advice on taming and feeding iguanas

clairecooper Aug 26, 2005 08:58 AM

hi,

I have just got a iguana, i think he is about 6 months old i was just wondering how i can get him used to me, i have held him, but he seems to feel threated he puts his back up and has whipped me with his tail twice, i want it to get used to me but i dont that much about him really! Also what sort of foods do they prefer i have given him like mixed salads and tomatoes, which he aint keen it.he has had some fruit strawberries, i think i'm just being paranoid and making sure he eats....

I would apreciate the advice thanks

Claire

Well, your feeding him mixed salad and tomatoes? that doesnt sound correct. he needs dark leafy greens. go to www.anapsid.org
www.grrenigsociety.org and www.iguanaden.com

Those sites are full of all the information you need. Read all the pages up and down, then you will know all about your igglet.
