The weather is kind of shaky this time of year , it is going down to low 40,s at night here much to cold for him to be outside . Come summer we will see , he will be out and about with me for sure !He already looks big you should make him a outside screen cage or something then he could stay out longer just a thought
Thanks , I really am , I had an iguana years back. He was friendly once you got him out , but the bigger he got it just became such a "wrestling match" it just wasn't fun any more ! This guy goes to anyone and is so friendly ! I told my wife yesterday , "I would let him live on top of our cocktail table if I wasn't afraid he would fall off !"Funny ! Sounds like your really enjoying him he looks awesome too.
i think iguanas are awesome lizards but I could see it being hard to handle a big one! Does slick enjoy human interaction ?Thanks , I really am , I had an iguana years back.

Once Chubby , my green iguana got about 4 Ft. long he sort of worked on his own time table . He was basically happy eating and laying in the sun on his branch all day and didn't really want to be messed with ! Because they like to climb , and swim , they need an enormous amount of room . We had a guest room that was "Chubby's room" !i think iguanas are awesome lizards but I could see it being hard to handle a big one! Does slick enjoy human interaction ?
Yes I've heard they need a whole room that would be tough for meOnce Chubby , my green iguana got about 4 Ft. long he sort of worked on his own time table .

Slick is getting used to us and does seem to enjoy being with , and interacting with us ! He was having a good time running around on my shoulders while I was playing on the Computer the other day ! I wouldn't trade him for a dozen iguanas !

He looks like he loves it!
He's like " help I'm drowning " lolI had Slick in today , his scales were looking dull in spots . So I decided to check him out and make sure I wasn't going to be dealing with fleas ! Turns out he was starting to shed , so I figured why not re cycle Speedy's old "Hot Tub" ! I put some warm water in there and Slick really liked it !
