Very excited to get Iguanas (Advice)

Postby Reptron » Wed Nov 07, 2012 8:39 pm

Hi fellas

A long childhood dream is about to become a reality. After always wanting to keep Green Iguanas, it is finally happening. I suppose its just the right time.

I am not to clued up on their upkeep yet but will be before I actually buy the reptiles. The cage is being built for me 1.3 x .85 x 1m tall which should be sufficient for a decent chunk of time. So I am looking into all the cage stuff (humidity, heat light, etc.) and wont get the Iguanas until its a very awesome set-up.

My question is:
I would like to get a pair of juveniles with the hope that one day they might be happy enough to breed, also I have 4 year old twin boys that can hopefully take interest and learn from watching them grow and reproduce. Any pointers as to what to get and where, what is a good price? Any tips will be greatly appreciated
