Savannah's will always hold a place in my heart. Years ago (back in the 90's), I had a couple of them and they were quite large. They had their own room that was climate controlled and would get to walk around the house. I got Savannah's because my mom (who got me into reptiles when I was a little girl) wanted a lizard that can roam free, but Green Iguanas were a handful. One of them died from fatty liver disease. A friend of mine is a vet and she performed a necropsy on him. I followed the books on what to feed them. Mice, chicken, turkey, canned dog food (they shit like a fire hose), etc. A lot of digging, I learned that what I was feeding them was all wrong and it was my fault he died. In the late 90's, I went into the AOL reptile chat room and mentioned that Savanna's should be fed insects, snails, and such, instead of rodents as a staple. Melissa Kaplan posted a sticky announcement that no one should listen to what I say. That I don't know what I'm talking about and that feeding them rodents, chicken, etc. as a staple was okay. About month later, Reptiles Magazine did a spread about Savannah's and their dietary requirements. Vindication! For the past few years, I've wanted to get another big lizard. I have the space to build a huge cage. Now, I am going back and forth between another Savannah or a Rhino Iguana.

Good ol know it all Melissa Kaplan. The original reptile info queen. We’ve all been there as young keepers and it’s good that you learned from your mistakes and tried to teach others. Honestly Savannahs are making a huge come back in the community so getting into them again could be a good thing. People are working on proving out different patterns or morphs of them so soon their price will be going up and make them less affordable. Rhino iguanas are impressive but seen to take more work than Savannahs to tame. Both will make rewarding animals to keep. You should watch our green iguana video just for fun hah. Good luck on your future animal endeavors. 👊🏼

Hey, I wanna ask. So, is having a pet Green Iguana a good idea? or is it a handful?
@NatureInYourFace2 ай бұрын
If you've never owned an iguana, they can be a handful for several reasons....they can grow to a large size, particularly the males. If they're not handled regularly, they are prone to tail whipping and sometimes even biting, as they can be territorial. they also have different personalities, one might be very gentle and never display defensive behavior and another might be the complete opposite. In general, if you can provide them with a large enough enclosure and you can spend some time each day picking up your iguana and allowing it to become used to human interaction, they can make awesome and rewarding pets. They just need a little work. We made a full episode on iguanas as pets, check it out before you buy an iguana! Thanks for asking.

Nike monitor? We have an Adidas monitor! 🤣 Nile monitors are one of the more difficult species to handle in captivity due to their defensive behavior. The only way to tame them down is to handle them when they're small. If you don't there's a point where it becomes too dangerous. A bite from a large one can cause serious injuries and a whip from their tail is also no joke. If your monitor is young put on a pair of thick gloves and pick it up as often as possible. I've had several super tame Nile monitors that started out crazy but tamed down nicely. Be patient, it can take a while! Thanks for your question.
