Hello everyone. I have a 6 month old iguana and hes in a 6 x 6 x 4 foot cage. I am just wondering if its possible to potty train him at such a young age. I have noted that his pooping times are 9-10am and 2-3 pm. problem is i have been using a lasagna pan filled with water for the little guy and tub him at those times. he flails for a bit but then finally goes and walks away freely. I miss his restroom time every once in awhile and he will poop right next to it!!!! I have done this for a month and a half now. something i noted is when he doesnt poop in the pan he tends to poop in the same place. I want it to stick in his head that pan = toilet, Do i have to give him carrot treats when he does his business? if anyone can give me some good advice i would be very appretiative
