Handling Your Iguana

Saturday, July 31st, 2010


Learning to handle your iguana correctly is very important. Never simply grab the animal; always be gentle but firm, and make no sudden moves that could frighten it. Remember that an iguana’s tail can break easily, so never pick one by the tail.

Tame iguanas can be encouraged to climb onto your arm, but otherwise pick up your animal by firmly holding it from above. Larger animals, or those that are not so tame, should be picked up using one hand behind the animal’s neck and one hand at the base of the tail. Confidence is the key to proper handling, and your animal will soon learn to respond to you.

Daily handling from a young age should ensure that your iguana becomes tame and used to you, but allow for a settling-in period so that your pet becomes confident in its new home.

Children should always be supervised by an adult when handling even young iguanas. Very large iguanas are best handled only by adults.

Water Bowl

Monday, July 26th, 2010


When you first bring your iguana home, it may be necessary to include a hide box in the cage. This provides a retreat if the animal feels nervous, and it can be removed once the iguana feels secure in its new home. You can also include decorative items such as plants. You could use live plants, but they will probably be eaten by the iguanas or destroyed by their sharp claws, so artificial plants are a better alternative. If you do choose live plants, make sure they are not toxic.

You will also need a large water bowl for the animal to drink from and bathe in. Iguanas frequently defecate in their water bowl, so check regularly to make sure the water is clean at all times.

What to Feed?

Monday, July 12th, 2010


Young iguanas may eat some insects, but adults are generally totally herbivorous. Live insects, such as crickets and mealworms, are readily available from all pet stores that sell reptiles (and many that don’t), and all of these are suitable for young iguanas. In the United Kingdom, locusts are also available.

Not all baby iguanas will eat insects, however, and they will thrive if fed exclusively on vegetable matter. The key to a good diet is variety, and it is very important not to let your iguana become fixated with one food item.

Feeding Your Iguana

Friday, July 9th, 2010


Correct feeding is probably the most important aspect of keeping your iguana in good health, and is also the area in which most problems occur. Iguanas are herbivorous, that is, they eat plants; but they will also devour insects and small rodents in the wild.

Did you Know?

Their large size means adult iguanas have few natural predators, but they are the prey of large snakes, such as boas and anacondas. Baby iguanas are more vulnerable, being preyed on by turtles, large fish, and a variety of mammals and birds.

Claws

Tuesday, July 6th, 2010


Claws need to be trimmed regularly for the comfort of the owner as well as the reptile. This should be carried out on a regular basis and will require assistance. One person must hold the iguana firmly, while the other carries out the claw-trimming.

Clean the areas first, using a disinfectant designed for reptiles, then use sharp nail clippers to remove the end of the claw. Avoid cutting claws too short because you may cut into the blood vessels in the nail, which could lead to infection. Always ask advice from your pet store or veterinarian if in doubt.

Caring for Your Iguana:Skin Care

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010


Iguanas, like all reptiles, periodically shed their skins as they grow. Snakes do this in one piece, but iguana skin flakes off in patches. Occasionally, skin does not come away properly, particularly on the toes, and any adhering pieces need to be removed. This is best done by spraying the affected area with lukewarm water. Your iguana will appreciate being sprayed with water, particularly when it is shedding its skin.

Vitamin Supplementation

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010


Vitamin supplements are available for reptiles, and your pet store or veterinarian will be able to advise on the best for your pet. Always follow the instructions provided, and don’t be tempted to exceed the suggested doses. Females should be given additional supplementation during the breeding season.

If you buy a good, healthy animal to start with, feeding should present no problems. The trick is to offer a varied diet and to find out what your animal likes best.

Did You Know?

The iguana’s long, flattened tail is used as a rudder when swimming and also as a defense weapon. A lash from the tail would make any adversary think twice about taking on the iguana.

Water

Friday, June 25th, 2010


Clean water must be available at all times. Most iguanas will drink from a bowl once they are used to it, but some might prefer drinking from a fine mist spray. This will also encourage healthy shedding and will be greatly appreciated by your iguana.

Keeping Iguanas Outside

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010


In warmer parts of the United States and southern Europe, iguanas can be kept outside for a large part of the time. Even in colder countries, like England, iguanas enjoy being able to get outside and bask in natural sunlight on warm days. A sturdy, aviary-like structure with a wooden frame and wire mesh panels is probably the best and easiest to construct. The use of glass in outdoor enclosures should be restricted to small areas only, to prevent overheating or burning.

Personal Space

Friday, June 18th, 2010


As your iguana grows, it will be necessary to provide a much larger cage. The general rule is that the cage should be at least one-and-a-half times the body length of the animal in length, two-thirds the length in width, and the same height as the length of the animal. Thus, for a 5-foot (1.5 m) animal (easily attained in very few years) the cage would need to be 7 1/2 feet (2.3 m) long, 3 1/2 feet (1.1 m) wide and 5 feet (1.5 m) high. Such a cage will need to be specially constructed, because a few pet stores can provide a ready-built enclosure of such dimensions. The basic design would be a wooden box with sliding glass doors at the front.

Another option is to turn an entire room into an iguana enclosure, which is particularly suitable for breeding groups. Another way of providing housing is to utilize an alcove or storage area, blocking it in and installing glass doors for access. You could also use an old wardrobe or cupboard by removing existing doors and replacing them with glass.
