Iguanna lesson 101.
Yes there are very clean animals and most always pick out a spot to go to when nature calls. Mine for some odd reason picked the guest bathroom tub. It's nice that they use the tub.....but it would be nicer if it wasn't where guest could see. At least it easier to clean, just wash it down the drain, more or less.
Dogs and Iguana's toghter takes time, You can't train them to like dogs but I can train the dogs to leave them alone. When push comes to shove all they have to do is whip that tail and the dogs take off running. It's that cat, Cali I'm having a problem with now. She's still a kitten and thinks the tails are play toys. Luckly she quick and can get out of the way when Vern get fed up with her. For the most part everyone gets along, I think growing up all toghter really helps or else we are really lucky.
Females are not as big as male but still can get to a pretty good size, 5 foot or so. Problem is when you get a Iguanna at a young age you never know what sex it is till they grow up and you can look for the signs. For a few years we thought George was female ...till the signs started showing. Thanks god he was male, 1 female with one male would have been he#$. 1 male needs any where from 5 to 10 femals to make him happy.
They are odd pets to most, but we love them and they have their own personally and can even be loveable to a point.
Edit: Oh yeah, in case you where wondering about their different colors. Vern has that orange to him because he just got out of wanting a mate. Early he was really orange. Then once their ready to shed thier skin they also turn a brown like color.
Hope you liked your leasson for the day?
