In the meantime your iguana pet is a baby you can shore up it in an aquarium or a small terrarium, since it will be comfy there until it grows up. Also while they are diminutive the iguana remain in the soil and not so much time climbing. This way you have some time to start forecasting his definitive cage.

The most usual thing is a wood made iguana enclosure with one or more of the sides full with hen-house wire, or a mock crystal clear cloth that allow a good visibility. Also it is viable to use glass which is easy to clean and relics nice, but it is weighed and delicate at the time of installing it. The wire allows to flight the heat and if it is not tightened well it is viable to warp but your iguana pet will love it as it offers them a good superficial to climb and also it allows good freshening on the iguana corral You will have to pick the objects most tailored according to the warmth of your residence

• The Size

always is; the bigger, the better, and that's about it!. It is de rigueur to bear in mind that iguana pets {need big erect| require high| space for the reason that they spend most of the time climbed trunks and platforms. It is recommended to be as high as the distance end to end of the iguana together with the tail) or more, the distance end to end must be 1 ½ the body of the iguana and the breadth, than 2/3 of the of the iguana.

Now it is de rigueur to give him a surface to rise. You can use thick sloping undergrowth or ramps and some shelves in the end so that the iguana could rest at hand.

Cover them with a blanket of imitation lawn so that it has where to stick with his fingernails, taking care that there do not stay free clothes that could get entangled in the paws and hurt them.

Another practical option and that remains nice is to wrap the branches or ramps with thick cords and them to adhere well so that they could not come undone and turn out to be dangerous. The iguanas usually spend most of the time climbed these high places, so it can be useful to locate there the heat source, but have the precaution of putting it out of his scope so that it could not burn himself.

*The substratum

It is convenient to avoid any substratum that is loose, as sawdust, sand or gravel, since the iguana can be consumed and to cause intestinal obstructions. You can use any type of paper role without ink; this one is not very attractive, but it is replaced easily when dirty and is cheap. Also, you could used synthetic carpet, which remains nicer. A way of keeping it clean is to cover the surface with squares of carpet, this way when one gets dirty, you withdraw it and change it into other while you disinfect the one that you removed. You can use lye (to dilute a part for every water ten) having the precaution of clarifying it very well then. If the cage of your iguana is very big you can use chips of wood (not neither pine nor cedar, since they can be poisonous) on the soil. As the iguanas spend almost all the time in height they will only go down to defecate on short periods. In their wild habitat, the iguanas live on the sand without problems, but in captivity they tend to consume the material of the substratum because they are bored and locked up. Independently of the substratum that you choose, it is very important that you keep it clean and dry. The animals that live in a dirty ambiance have many more chances that any small skin wound becomes infected and to develop painful abscesses or blister disease.
