Oh i also want to ask why is my baby iguana not drinking water ?

I already put a small size plastic cup and a bigger ice cream box filled with fresh water in the cage. Is it because baby iguana didn't drink a lot of water so it looks like the water is not consumed by him ?


P.S : I change the water everyday in the morning.

It is taking in water one way or another.

An Iguana gets alot of water from the food it eats.make sure you have a large enought tub of water so it can climb in to soak,

a lot of lizards will also not go up to their water bowls and drink from them like he said eariler they get it from the leafy greens and also from frequent misting and they like to lap it of their face and plants and the walls of the enclosure.

LOL today i sneak peek my iguana and saw him soak into the ice cream box and drink some water. XD

There is something that i curious about. Today i serve snaps bean ( cut into small pieces ) and mustard green ( also cut into small pieces ).

I mix it evenly but my igy only eat the mustard. Is that because my igy never eat snaps bean before so he don't know that is a vegetable ?

Should i give the whole snaps bean to introduce him as a new food ?

No whole foods, he could choke on it. It is best to keep mixing them together or try something else, he may not like the peas.

Ya different animals can grow accustomed to certain foods and can learn to pick favorites as well and and will not eat other types of foods. Hence why i said earlier about fruits being treats too not a every day thing, same goes for other types of foods as well.
