My name is Pauline and I have this year old male iguana for adoption.

He has excellent colouration and is pretty healthy. He has a temperament like all male iguanas and only a handler will be able to tackle him. I've been lashed by his tails many times!

My concern is that he's being stressed by my cats' with their nosy and curious ways. Plus the fact that we're working class people who have not spent enough time with him. I feel bad letting him go but would be even more cruel to prolong this arrangement. If you know of anyone who is interested, please contact me at 012-2008352.

Thanks.

I did get the fellow Terra bulbs but with a shift in location (to the balcony) he gets natural sunlight (shaded) which gives him that nice coloration. Saves on electricity bill too

Thanks guys for your kind words

Yes, he is a really big fella for his age. When I got him he was such a pip squeak, but look at him now I was very much attracted to him when I found him at the pet shop. A really cute face.

Guess it was also an impulse buying but I was aware of how big he'd become. Somehow the lure of the moment got better of me. Which is why I wouldn't think of releasing him to the wild; easy since I'm surrounded by forest and hills. It would be very irresponsible of me.

I'm thinking of sending him to Zoo Negara; what you guys think?

Pauline.

Thanks funkychips, appreciate the effort.

As for his diet, I've always given him a mixture of green leaf vege and sometimes fruits like papaya and honeydew. I'm not sure what is the appropriate size for his age but body length is only 15 inches without the tail. He has a flawless tail (and great energy!) that measures roughly over 30 inches.

Yes I'm sure the zoo is also packed. Worst scenario I'll still keep him.

Pauline.
