The
green iguana is the most popular of the iguana species. He is the most
recognized iguana as well and is the main type that is kept as a pet. The green
iguana can grow as long as 6.5 feet and weigh as much as 11 pounds. Keeping an
iguana can be fun, but it’s important to make sure you can handle that type of
iguana. For instance, iguanas can be tough pets. They aren’t recommended for
first time pet owners either. Iguanas are generally recommended for older
children and those with experience owning and caring for pets. Many iguanas in
captivity die within their first year. It’s important to make sure you can
provide your iguana with adequate food, environment, temperature, and habitat.
For instance, iguanas like tropical climates so you may need a heat lamp for
his tank. For more information, give your pet clinic Auburn Hills, MI a call. Click here for additional
