First time Iguana owner...

[gotiggy]

This face does not come close to how I feel right now! I currently want to go to the pet store and knock some salesperson senseless. Wait they must already be senseless or they would know what the freak they are doing.


Thanks for the help.....I must now go and release my frustration !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Am I wrong to feel this way??? I know I didn't know much of anything when I went into this, but if they are going to sell iguana's, heck if they are going to sell anything they should be educated about the animals and be able to help people like me who know nothing.

Thanks again folks!!!!!!!

Absolutely not. I'd be super pissed if someone got me to buy an iguana by lying to me like that.

That's the sad thing... the people that really don't know much, expect to be educated when they go into a petstore. They expect to get good advice and good service... and most later find out that they didn't.

Pet stores suck!

At least you can take the light back... package it back up and tell them that it quit working (hey, if they lied to you, you can lie right back)... and if they'll only give you in-store credit, buy some Iggy food and get the hell out!

I ordered and recieved the Powersun bulb. I hope to order another very soon to have as a back up. That is a very pricey bulb!!!! I just thought I would let eveyone know how it was going with our little friend. He hasn't eaten anyone yet. I do think he likes the light better. Anyway, he is doing fine. Thanks for the help!!!

Really good to hear. I'm sure he enjoys that bulb... lots of heat, lots of UVB... like being on vacation.


It's so awesome to hear you're taking good care of him. Poor Igs are some of the most abused reptiles out there... I'm glad this one's got people who care

So far things are going very well with Elvis. We have had him a month and it seems like he has been with us forever.
