my female iguana, she is acting kind of strange was wondering if any one could listen to her symptoms and tell me if she is sick. She is not eating normal she nibbles a bit that about all she is eating, also she bobbs her head when you get close to touching her like she dont want bothered she is still active last night she diappeared for a while and we couldnt find her she knows how to get in and out of her cage by her self. We brought another Iguana into the house hold over a month and a half ago and they seem to get along fine I found one little mite on her a few weeks ago a red one, have treated her and have not seen any since I check her daily for them. She has a pretty good diet. I feed her collard greens, green beans, carrots, some fruits she is a bit picky with fruits but she likes strawberries and likes oranges. her room stays pretty; warm I don't think that is the problem. I keep the two iguana separated in different areas. put them together once in a while. the new iguana is very aggresive i have rescued it from a house hold where it was not taken care of very well thats where lizzy got the mites. and the new one bites and wipps constantly i am very slowly taming it going to be a long process, pretty sure she is not sheeding, her skin is turning a bit orange so was thinking that she may be in heat. She is about 4years old the new one is a year old but not sure if its male or female too young to tell.I think that is all please help out. sorry about the book!!!! lol
