My iggy is scared of me

MylesMasterson May 24, 2010 03:57 PM

Can anyone help me with my iguana? When I open his cage he runs off, he won't sit still for anything, he tail whips hen I get close, and I keep getting non-stop claws to the face (when i move it he just does it again). It's driving me insane, Can someone help?
Thanks

I had a skittish one years ago.I just made handling time a time to give her something she loved to eat.It worked over time but just regular calm handling is key to keeping them relatively tame.
