    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hi, I think I'm taking a shot in the dark here, I haven't been able to find any information on this subject except for a couple of theories and a lot of rumor. I just acquired a 1.1 pair of red iguanas. I know that it is Iguana iguana. I am just interested to find more information on the genetics of the red iguana. Is it recessive, dominant, co-dominant, locality dependent. I haven't yet spoken to anybody who had any evidence to found their ideas. I currently breed cornsnakes, leopard geckos and ball pythons for color and genetics. This guy and gal were just too good a deal to pass up.

those are very pretty. are you planning on breeding them eventually? i would definatly buy one..... i wonder how they look as adults.
 
Hi, Thank you. I think they're beautiful as well. There is a picture at Fluker Farm's website of an adult. You can also google "red iguana" under images and come up with one or two. They're not very common at all. I've been looking for about 2 weeks for somebody who knows something about their genetics and I can't find anybody. The most reliable information I've been told is that it is simple recessive and they do breed true. I might not be breeding them just because of the overpopulation of green iguanas. They are indeed the same species, just a rare color morph. If you have any spare time to do some research, please let me know if you find anything out about them.
