Hi I am new to the forum and my name is Gary. I have a young adult Iguana names Whippers and a Chinese Water Dragon named Mandrake. I am fasinated by all kinds of animals but I have especially been interested in caring for lizards lately. Lizards are like little children and need a lot of care and love like anything else. I actively support the SPCA when ever I can.

Welcome to Herp Center. Your humidity levels might be too low in your mesh Iguana habitat. Unless you're running a humidifier or something.

Welcome!

It looks as though you have both your iguana and water dragon in the same cage. Is this so?

welcome
It does look like an ig and a dragon together! I would suggest separating them
pronto. From what I read on here igs are much too aggressive to be kept with a water dragon.
There are a lot of ig keepers here that can help you
