Well, it has only been a couple of weeks, if that, that he has been outside, making for cooler nights, but potentially hotter days if he stays on the upper shelf where the sun reaches him. I think it was Cindy who said, "Iguanas do not like change!" And I think that is right. It took him a while to settle down, but I feel that he is more comfortable with me now than ever before. I walk into his territory to reach up and pet him. The first few days he was out there, he went to every glass door and pawed to get into the house!! He also does not seem to eat as much, but is not losing weight. He watches what goes on in the house. They are curious intelligent animals. I also think he is growing and getting more orange since outside. But he is now extremely docile and really likes being rubbed and patted. It is wonderful to see.
