Meet LeRoy:
It was in November 1996 when I went
to the pet store with the intensions of getting a larger fish
tank and expanding my aquarium. Out of curiosity, I went by the
reptile section, as I have a lust for snakes...
Much to my surprise, there was a couple
of iguanas there. In years past the igs were in the $50 - 80
price range, and now they were competitively reduced to $10 -
20. How could I resist? He was about 4 inches from snout to vent.
His tail was intact. He appeared to be healthy.
The lady at the pet store was pleasant
and showed me the different things that I would need. She sold
me a 20 gallon long tank, with a piece of a log that was about
a foot long. I was informed that he would be "okay"
in the set up for at least a year or two.
About a week after I got him, I started
digging on the web and found the most
informative site imaginable. It has
given me more insight to the ig world than any book I had read.
From this web page I found out the not so nice stuff, like ig
breeding aggression, calcium deficiencies and kidney failure.
I learned that some colors that you are wearing can affect your
ig's mood, that feeding a balanced diet is not the commercial
gunk they sell in a can, nor is it lettuce. I learned that igs
are social animals and would rather be around people than living
in a waterless fish tank watching the world through the glass.
For the love of LeRoy, I introduce my ig web page.
