That's a new one to me. I've heard where sometimes the Galapagos Marine Iguana can develope a reddish tint due to a red pigment in certain seaweeds they eat but I am quite sure that they are not raffling those. Anyone else hear of these ??

Same as greens, just a color morph. They go for BIG money!

Red iguanas are going to be as big of a commitment as a normal green iguana...I don't think it is wise to raffle them off...people never realize what they are getting into!

We were discussing red igs at Iguana Center recently. Here's the thread link: http://www.iguanacenter.com/showthread.php?t=222

I think the third and fourth pictures in the first post ( ) are the true red phase ones.
