    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....

Check this spiny tail out he has great colors.
He is pretty tame but too fast to be let off the leash out side.
His number one treat is super worms!
 
Well I am glad to see it!! Now that makes two of us that know for a fact that the spinytail iguanas do infact get tame!! I have posted this on other sites about how tame they get. This is one of the reasons I say you cannot believe everything you read. Everything I have read says that they are not good pets and are not able to tame, which is not even close to the truth. The one in my avatar is also tame as a dog. It just makes me wonder where they get their information. Or are they just getting their ideas from others that don't have a clue when they wrote about them to start with. There are many things I have seen in books that are far from the truth. I read books and weigh them with a grain of salt. You think just because it is in a book, that it is true, but sometimes it is far from the facts. Just keep in mind everyone can write a book, but there is a big difference in the so called facts written in some books and years of experience.
 
exactly!

Spinys even live in a group ok.
I have a trio 2 males one female.
Mine were wc as a babies and they are nice and tame letting you pet them or hand feed them the female laid slugs last year but they are older now
fingers crossed she will lay viable egss this time.
people that cannot tame a spiny have not tried too hard or the lizard was too old to agust to captive lfe.
:bolt01:
Here is a pic of him talkin smack or hissing he does it now and then.

Cool looking spiny!!! Here are some pictures of the tame male I had for a long time. You can tell by the pics just how mean he was!
 
To tell you the truth, he was a rescue from a pet shop. So I know nothing of his background. They had him in a 20 tall tank with baby spinich to eat. I just could not stand to leave him there. I had them thoughts going through my mind of seeing him a few weeks later in real poor condition. He was an adult as seen in these pictures as well. I just had to get him out of there.
