Re: Weird symptoms for my iguana

Ask him about all the other greens. If he doesn't carry them he might know a store that does.

Here's a couple of pictures:

Collard Greens - http://www.doortodoororganics.com/pr...ard_greens.jpg

Mustard Greens - http://media.westsideorganics.com/ws...ard_greens.jpg

Dandelion Greens - http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/images/dandeliongreens.jpg

Chicory - http://www.all-creatures.org/recipes.../i-chicory.jpg

They should have at least some of these at your local grocery store in the produce section.

If all else fails, you could buy them online: http://www.reptigreens.com/index.html

We've had a couple of discussions on these here. I've never used them, but they could be a good solution for you.

Re: Weird symptoms for my iguana

thank you very much for the help since I live in a small town they rarely have those kind of produce.

Re: Weird symptoms for my iguana

get ready for a bigger cage! That one isn't going to last forever. Think twice as deep and 6 feet high

Re: Weird symptoms for my iguana

Considering his ordeal he dosen't look too bad!
What is that in the floor of the cage?
And if you take a branch and securely place it in a horizontal position up closer to the lights he will get more UVB.
You want him within 12 inches of the light.
