We've got an approx. 1 year old female Cuban Rock Iguana coming today!!!! The guy we're getting her from has been sick on and off for many years. He used to do reptile rescue and has his own collection but he's just not able to care for them like he would like to. So he's selling almost everything. He's GIVING us the Rock and a high end Bearded Dragon with tanks & lights. He called us Saturday and we brought over the big male Red Tegu we got from him last year, along with a few other reptiles to show them. He was so impressed how well he looked he brought us up to see what he had left and offed the Rock & BD to us. The BD they're supposed to bring over this weekend. I've read the care for the Rock is very similar to a Green Iguana except they are terrestrial and need slightly higher basking temps. They also grow alot slower but get bigger, up to 5ft & 25 lbs!! I'm guessing the female should grow to a little bigger than our Red Tegu. We're going to have to sell our 16 month old B&W Arg. Tegu to make room. I was planning on building another 7ft x 3ft x 3ft enclosure but I may stretch that a foot in all direction if we have room. I won't be getting home until after 9pm tonight so I won't be able to take any pics until tomorrow.
