Hi all, got myself a rhino iguana today! Been after one for ages and a lovely 30inch long 18 month year old came along and I couldn't resist ! Thinks it's a female( will check more when it's settled) and it is tame already which is a bonus! Keeping the name buddy from the previous owner! I know,I know, I shouldn't do threads like this with no pics but couldn't help it and I will put pics up when settled!
Cheers!
Dan

Congrats Dan, My own ambition one day is to own one of these marvals, I have only kept the green iguana to date however. Look forward to the pics

many thanks! they are wonderful animals. mine has now settled so i will get some pics asap. eating really well and every time i go in the viv it raises up for a stroke and closes its eyes when i give it a rub!!so friendly which is a bonus!!

Glad its settling in well for you, good luck with the new addition!

I will get some up soon. On nights at the min at work so not getting much time for anything else. Thanks for all your comments , they really are amazing lizards, so inquisitive!

Ok I just nipped to get a few quick pics to keep you all happy!!lol!!
Here's a pic of the enclosure from the outside. It's next to my tegus viv and both are 6x3x4.


Next is buddy herself(I think a her?) as you can see she has 2white patches on her back. When with her previous owner as a baby she darted from him and got stuck behind a switched on radiator so got a couple of burns. The White patches are getting less and less with each shed, either way she's still gorgeous!


Next is buddy on her basking shelf. The viv is very plain for now until I know she's 100%. will add some more tiles and branches in a week or two.



A pic to show how tame she is. EVERYTIME i open the viv she raises up for a scratch!



Hope you like

Dan

are you feeding the "debated" omnivore diet or a full herbivore one?
just merely interested.

When researching these about a year and a half ago not one source of information would agree so I am assuming the diet is debated just like the green cousins.

Awesome pics mate, She really is stunning.

Looks really healthy with that strong, upright stance! What are you feeding her on?
