Thats cool as fuck :thumbsup
I'm getting 2 emperor scorpions :winkwink:

that's scary

No one else likes Carlos??? :(

I like him...and his name ! :thumbsup

Cool, but I hate those things

I am not a reptile person.


Cool stuff though.

does he smell weird? If not i like him.

he doesnt smell weird. by the way, does anyone know if they sleep with their eyes open? i just tried to grab him, he was all still and then it was like he "woke up" but his eyes were open.

Nice iguana you get there !

Check my Veiled Chameleon I got since last November ! :thumbsup

my b/f wanted one of those instead but i heard they were really mean. :Oh crap

mmmmm....iguana

creepy,, :food-smil

i'd hit it

nice... chop off his tail some time when you're bored.... it'll grow back :D

So these things give off eggs without a mate?
I know a friend whos iguana left a few eggs in his bed the other day. (he lets it roam free)

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure they have to mate, and ours is a male so it's probably all good. :)

ill laugh if he spooges all over during a wet dream... hahaah :/

cool pic :thumbsup

awesome pet

he looks awesome, my friends looks just like it but bigger.

Got 3 of them myself.. Will see if i can get a picture taken and posted later.
Awesome animals Iguanas ! :thumbsup

They do sleep with their eyes closed..
Maybe he was deep into thoughts ? :winkwink:

Wow, that's an awesome pic :thumbsup

He looks so pissed at the camera tough, did he tongue it after the pic was taken ? :1orglaugh

that chameleon is about to spit onto something...coool

Very cool. We have an Iquana that's probably about 10-12 years old and about 3 feet long (including tail of course). We let ours roam sometimes and she'll come and sit on my lap and want to be petted like a damn dog!

A piece of advice though...make sure you give your Iquana plenty of calcium. Juvenile Iquanas are very sensitive to calcium deficiencies and die pretty quickly without it...

very cool!! tell Carlos I said hello :)

blazi

funny shit...I know a friend that has a Iguana that has the name you given to yours...lol

Usually anything that doesn't have fur, I flip out..(phobia) but there was something about ours that I just loved...(had to give him to my uncle when we found out we were pregnant 7 yrs ago)
He's HUGE now, my uncle finally stopped buying bigger tanks b/c he was getting way too big, he's awesome though, be careful of his tail as he gets bigger and older, he'll whip ya if he's pissed. He always whipped my husband, but was very attached to me...we still visit him, and I tried to convince my husband to take him back....he said NO WAY.. :(

LOL
nice pet :P

where do you keep it?

exotic pet you got there.

you have friends looking like giant chameleons?

That's good advice.. Feeding them right is extremely important !
(giving them access to swim is too btw.)

My old one was like a dog really, I could call him and he'd come running to be petted (if he was in the mood anyways) or i could throw stuff for him to fetch for me..
He was damn smart too concidering the brain size, at dinner time he'd often start chasing the cat, tease the cat to chase him or do some other kind of stuff to make me come looking what all the noice was all about, all while he was sneaking into my plate to eat my food *lol*

some pussy please

what is the best way to feed it calcium? like which form of calcium? and we have it in a glass cage, it's big enough for his size for now. i think i need another heater though because the temperature is at like 70 and that is way too low.

oh icky no.
that is SO NOT my thing.
i prefer soft cuddly furry creatures.

im with her. not a fan of lizards and scaley things.

Well, i have no idea of the english names of half the things we're feeding ours so found this link that can give you some very good and acurate advice http://drexotic.com/care_iguanas.htm

Btw. You should be very carefull with literature (printed aswell as online)about them as iv'e found that most are very inacurate and sometimes even harmfull in their suguestions.. This article seems to be okay all the way though.

As for temperature it is very important that you have different temperatures in your tank so that he can seek colder areas if too hot, and warmer if too cold, and allways have a hot spot like a heated stone or something as they need warmth to propably digest their food.

Cool pet... teach it to hit joints :pimp
