''My igs tend to get runny noses(nothing more than more snalt) on occasion and its generally when the air is more humid...remember, this isn't a bad thing as they need the humidity. Its just a clear(like water) runny nose.''

My rhino snalts,but has never had a runny nose.My ty in temps in the day basking spot are 107f and at night i use no lights and my ambient temp is 68f the room there kept in the thermostat is kept at 65f but that room stays around 65f most of the time and this works for me.

Rob,
''My igs tend to get runny noses(nothing more than more snalt) on occasion and its generally when the air is more humid...remember, this isn't a bad thing as they need the humidity. Its just a clear(like water) runny nose.''
Rob, I could take a pic of the glass in two to three days it is white from all the sneezing. I can stand and see liquid pooling in his nose at times. It has a lot to do with the amount of moisture they get. diet that is heavier in Dark greens as compared to a fair amount of juicy fruits and such will result in more of a runny nose.
Mine is perfectly healthy and eats a incredible amount of food. Greens, fruit, iguana diet.
