Little blue "dragon"

[Really]

He looks like a little dragon in this picture. All he needs is a stash of gold. Okay, so he's a vegetarian dragon... lol



He likes looking out of the window when we travel.


I'm a little worried about a drinking problem...


But he does like hanging out on my shoulder

[pookie!]

Oh my God I didnt know they came in blue!!!

That is beyond awesome! You just blew my mind!

[Really]

In addition to the green everyone knows about and the red that is becoming more popular, they also come in blue, yellow (with peach highlights), white, and there is a caramel albino now that has almost an opalescent quality about it. The whole iguana color morph thing is still relatively new but has some amazing possibilities.

wow now thtas a cool looking iguana

[angllady2]

I have never wanted an iguana before.

Now, I think I've changed my mind.

Do I even want to know how much a blue costs ?

Hahaha. Stunning little guy! I love the one where he's looking out the window... Waiting... Calculating... Plotting his next move.

Gorgeous. You don't see many blues these days!

The price of a blue varies greatly. The price dropped from the thousands to the hundreds when Petco managed to get a hold of a shipment from El Salvador last year. The price has been creeping back up, but a few Petcos around the country got a few in this year as well. If you can find one at Petco, they sell for $150 but otherwise you are looking at about $500 for a hatchling.

The Petco price wasn't really the bargain it sounded like since, at least last year, many of them had serious health issues. I bought two and after about $800 worth of vet bills I lost my little female. I still have my male and, despite the fact that most of the iguana community was convinced he'd turn green within weeks, he still shines bright blue a year later.

Some of the color morphs are amazing. The caramel albino is my favorite. One day, maybe...

[DennisB]

petco doesnt sell the true blue aqua iguanas... they will eventually turn green as they age...





true blue iguans will cost you anywhere from $800-$1200
