Hi, I am surprised there isn't an Iggy specific forum on here. At any rate I am beginning the long task of finding a responsible Iguana breeder.. I am looking for a baby who is CB(obviously), healthy, and handlable. Would prefer red, though any color would be fine provided the other criteria are met.
For the record I know full well what I am getting myself into. I have volunteered at an all animal rescue and rehab center that had two adult male iggies and an adult female. Iggy was the adult male from every keeper's nightmares, Rosco was nonviolent, but very shy. Ozzie-Ana(the girl) was a doll, though laid eggs every year like clockwork. I have had my own igy, a baby red from Petco that unfortunately didn't make it(DAMN YOU PET SHOPS). I miss her very much and am ready to take the plunge and get another iggy. I am not rushing into this, it may be up to a year from now when I actually purchase the baby, but I know it can take a long time to find a decent breeder for any animal. I have a 55gal that will be the baby's home until s/he outgrows it in a few months.![]()
