  • lettuce is the absolute WORST thing for an iguana.......ZERO nutritional value. plus, once hooked on lettuce, it's hell to get them to eat anything else. jesus christ people.....do your damn homework before getting an iguana that you know NOTHING about. not fair to them...

  • I nearly shat myself at 6:15

  • Woody FAIL XD!!!!!!!

  • Woody is a dick!

  • ur such a gay ur iguana dominates u ... ¬¬

  • ooh, bloody thumb: I'd make a stir fried dish of him like the mexicans .. he must have a tooth or 2...the Tegu (argentina) is worse, can deglove or remove a finger..

  • ahaaa you scared ass shit of your own iguana!! lmao

  • You clearly didnt put any efort into taming that beautiful lizard and are now reaping your punishment for it

  • @104333E Clearly, seeing as how he's caring for a rescued iguana that he did not raise.

  • I just rescued a 2 year old male and i think i need to clip his nails how do i do this? or do i just let them be? as is now my arms look like im one of those kids that sit in coners and plays with razorz

  • do iggys need there teeth cleaned?

  • woody is 1 fast vaaato:)

  • are they always that mean????

  • @XFavioxXx well woody has been that way as u can see in his other vids he is much nicer then he passed away though very sad

  • @iguanalover21 oh man sorry :(

  • @XFavioxXx well he died in his seep so hes in a better place

  • @iguanalover21 i got my baby iguana a few days ago but hes not eating what do you recommend to feed him please

  • @XFavioxXx well wat i would recoment...greens such as lettuce even grass so he feels like hes in wild life then tell me how he does after than

  • @iguanalover21 i bought him collard greens and he doesnt eat them i fed him some banana yesterday he ate a few peices and thats it hes not eating much but ill try giving him some lettuce

  • @XFavioxXx mine didnt like collard green either

  • @iguanalover21 now hes eating but hes not active what would should i do?

  • @XFavioxXx check his heating he might me losing strength from lack of heat

  • @iguanalover21 you think i could put him in the sun or something? and how do you think i should give him water i have a big bowl like thing that i put water in an hes not drinking and any other ideas on what to feed him other than lettuce because hes eating lettuce but i dont want to give him JUST lettuce maybe something else please i want my iguana to grow like yours :)

  • @XFavioxXx ok fisrt to get him warm if u have a flatbed truck let him out there and for water take a water bottle and poke a hole in at top and let it drip or squeez into his mouth kinda like rain and for food try green beens,grass,kale,greens,tamato­s,anything realy but if u dont have a truckntake a normal lamp and lean it on his cage and he will fell the heat and go bye is but becare and try to keep it away from flamable stuff ok

  • @iguanalover21 can i use a bottle with the spraying thing? and put it near hes mouth

  • @XFavioxXx yes that would work better

  • @iguanalover21 dude omg ty ty ty ty ty ty i gave him a big leaf of lettuce or some green thing and he ate like theres no tomorow man THANK YOU !!

  • @XFavioxXx well im just here to help

  • Both Lettuce and Spinach are not good choices. Dandelion Greens, Mustard Greens, Collards, and Turnip Greens are better choices.

  • I love you iguanas they are beautiful but fi the male when he starts chasing you since he's bigger get a broom and jut scare Hume away always show him who's leader you might need to tap him lightly you don't want to swing at him but just shoe him whose boss you know.

  • hey why do iguanas nod like that at 7:56

  • im now hungry after watching this xD

  • IM SORRY BUT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

  • fuck me my baby iguana better not be a freaking male thats a pain in a half holey shit lol how do u even punish him for being a prick i dont care if its nature or not thats just being an asshole lol

  • Whoa that guy is aggressive!I don't have a male but I've found that iguanas have blind spots on their body. One is around their ribs, at the base of their tale where the tail meets the pelvis, and the most useful, the one under their dewlaps. Whenever my ig starts to act up and tries to bite I put my fore finger under the dewlap and she calms down when she figures out that she is unable to attack me. This may seem like a suicide attempt on part of your fingers but it's worked for many ig owners.

  • You look like an excellent keeper, but your clearly scared of Woody. He KNOWS IT! And he is using that to his advantage. If woody acts up like that, a little warm water goes a long way.. Buy a garden mist spray bottle with pure clean water (every reptile owner should have one anyway) fill it with steaming hot water (don't worry when it comes out to a mist it cools INSTANTLY its almost freezing if you use cold water and that could cause shock) and just mist him down, most important DONT MOVE

  • Your a god amongst iguanas 

  • i  shred my butternut squash with a cheese grater

  • Dude woody looks so awsome.

  • remember to act as the alpha male he thinks he is in charge, let him who is boss and try not backing away and charge at him

  • Why no spinach?

  • @707HAMMERHEAD707

    To much protein

  • iguanas dont require 5 star salads but cool vid ive had a green iguana like 9 yrs and hes healthy as a horse all orange looking for a woman oh and woody is a real A-hole

  • iguanas dont require 5 star salads but cool vid ive had a green iguana like 9 yrs and hes healthy as a horse all orange looking for a woman

  • Is it true that male iguanas have some bad peroids when they in mating sesion? is it safer to have a female iguana?

  • That is 1 very mean Iguana that does not listen :)

  • its sad that woodstock passed away

  • Poor guy he has a baby godzilla

  • Woo Woody is scary, becareful lol

  • wooo Woody is scared me when he leaped at you, He is one angry lizard

  • ohh poor iguana, make sure they don't find a bug or some dust in their veggies!

  • Gojira!

  • <3 woody !

  • wow i dont know anything about iguanas. but Woody is a dick and I dont know why you would have him still if he still acts like that. But you care so I guess that counts of you keeping him.

  • Comment removed

  • so im getting an iguana so whats some things they can and cant eat

  • @AcVENT1 go to green iguana socity its a website and it tells u those things and more on iguanas

  • ahaha woody is so funny, ....watching is funny, i got one and it call Ivory but it still a baby. i hope it does not grow like woody.

  • OH MY GOD !!! a iguana try to kill a gringo OH No !

  • How do they eat the food in the wild without someone cutting their food for them?

  • Is something wrong with Woody?

  • woodys funny i have a iguana for the first time i hope mines not like woody

  • Im thinking of getting an iguana but all the pet store sites are useless so i was wondering 1)how much are they for a baby 2) can you let them live in your room as an adult

  • i don't like that Woody !!

  • woody is a jerk.

  • why not feed lettuce or spinach

  • @xxxChloefulxxx

    idk about spinach, but i think it gives gas. Lettuce isnt very nutritional, since its mainly water 

  • @xxxChloefulxxx Lettuce, as said before, is like feeding them water and spinach has very high amounts oxalates and goitrogens, both of witch ig's cant have too much of. Need proof I'm not just making up words?

  • @B4dConn3ction nope but they do like a hidebox to sleep in i use shelves and hideboxes check out my habiat video u'll see i use whole rooms for mine and they love it! u just have to make sure to use the right lighting and temps and foods too

  • Fuck that. I would not own an animal that aggressive.

  • @Bigbuchunter77 yea most people wouldn't but i do rescue so we take in what others dont want but he couldn't help it he never asked to be taken from the wild to be made someone pet but its what happens when people get things they don't research first and its the animals who suffer but me and him got to be good friend before he died this year :)

  • u mentioned 3 different size iguana's yet u showed two of them. whats the 3rd ?? :S

  • @MrLatrion well Binty wasn't in that video but he was inbetween the size of gizmo and woody but i also meant for a baby ig they need smaller cut food u can see in my baby feeding video :)

  • Whoa woddy bit you? because 9:08 your thumb is bleeding.

  • @TrueSurvivalist yep he was FAST!

  • @MrBinty1440 hey cool iguanas but I have a question I leave my house early and come back late mon - thurs and i dont like to leave food out cause im afraid alot of ants will come and kill my iguanas cause i left it out b4 and alot of ants came do u have anyy suggestions and i dont want to use pesticides ive been feding them a good size meal at night they usually eat pretty good thanks.

  • that iguana treats you like shit, i'd sell it.

  • @geckosandreps1 well he's a rescued ig and i'm a foster home in a non-profit iguana rescue/education group so i couldn't sell him and we actually became friends in the last couple years, check out the woody update videos, he got tumors and was on pain management for over a year he died in his sleep afew months back after letting me care for him and he was a great iguana he couldn't help it he just didn't want to be a pet he wanted to be a wild ig

  • @MrBinty1440 ima d bag

  • @MrBinty1440 Aww im sorry to hear that:( I won a baby iguana at the fair. its probably 10 or 12 inches long. i have fallen in love with it. when should i start handling it so it will be tame with me?

  • @nluvwithlayne07 i'l send u info in an email get ahidebox right away and go slow to show them ur not going to hurt him and give him time to adjust, read everything u can cause igs are the most complex, expensive reptiles to keep!

  • how long have u had woody??

  • @vansboy13 hes been in our foster homes since 2000 but was too wild to adopt out, i took his care over in 2008 but he just died afew months back check out woody updates to see more on him

  • @vansboy13 he was in our rescue group since 2000 but i took him in in 2007

  • the iguanas can eats criquets

  • @reptiles4life100 yes i'll email u some info cause its too long to put here

  • @MrBinty1440

    Can You send me that information too? thanks!

  • DAM, ur iguanas eat healthier than u.

  • @MINICH3F they do!

  • @andrew4581 yep he was super fast and 1 tooth got me cause its hard to hold the camera and get away from him LOL

  • wow you are very knowledgeable on iguana nutrition i learned alot. Is there any hope for Woody to stop trying to dominate you and generally kill you?

  • @corycmelvin you can learn even more reading about their diet, good foods & plants and which are not good or poisonous at anapsid,org & at greenigsociety,org and print out their food chart too cause they need a wide variety of fresh foods everyday but u have to mix & match foods to keep a 2:1 ratio of cal to phos. plus check out my video on nutribac df that helps them digest & gets rid of salmonella and the megaray combo lighting & meters i use for mine it makes them much healthier :)

  • bro! why didnt yu hit woudy?

  • @mando3dallas cause its not his fault hes a rescue and he never wanted to be a pet plus he was in mating season so many males get pretty aggressive during that time and cause all he wanted to do is chase me out of his territory like a wild male would do, later when he got tumors and then i had him fixed he mellowed down and let me care for him without the aggression, check out the woody update videos 16 of them he died in his sleep a few months ago

  • Hey are iguanas bad lizards to have. Because I really want one. I wont do like a lot of people that let them go or dont take care of them much.

  • @buricuaPR their not bad lizards to have they are just very high matinance and complex personalities to keep right from lighting, heating, diet, space, vet care and training they are more a lifestyle then just a pet so you'd need to read tons of info before getting one and expect to spend up to $1500 a yr on the care of 1 iguana if they get sick double that on vet bills, they import 750,000 babys a yr and 98% die young cause people have no idea what they are getting into buying an iguana

  • hi my iguana is about 10 muths he wont let me get him out the tank he just runs away he dont try to whip tho but when i feed him out my hand he come to me then h try get him agen and he runs what can i do to get him out

  • @dalemanning1986 yea it takes months to a yr to gain their trust cause people eat iguanas where they come from so it takes time to show them you wont hurt them, make sure he has a hidebox he can fully hide & sleep in to take away stress, if he looks u in the face open & close ur eyes 4 times in a row to show him your relaxed so he should be too, do not stare that is a threat! if he wont look at u then make a kissing action with ur lips they can't do that so it really gets their attention then

  • @MrBinty1440 do the eye thing and everytime before u go to pick him up or if he freaks out do the eye thing its a way of talking to them without words also make sure your lighting is right, temps are right & watch my baby feeding video goto greenigsociety,org & print out their food chart to help u learn to make up their diet right you can also let him ride on you while u walk around the house then put him under ur shirt on your shoulder to take a nap on u for a while each day so he relax w. you

  • Are all iguanas aggressive like him?

  • @oliviamariaa nope, woody was one ig who didn't want to be a pet and our rescue group took him in to keep we tried to rehab him and train him to be nice but he wouldn't have it so we let him be and just tried to care for him, also when orange they are in mating season so yea then most get very touchy to real aggressive but it usually lasts 2 to 3 months then its over

  • the mr woody is pretty angry at ya there.. why?

  • @rogerile97 he was a rescue who never wanted to be a pet plus at the time of this video he was also in mating season and more aggressive

  • D-WADE IS THE BEST EVER

  • fuck that my iguana will be tough ill feed his ass rocks!!

  • @aubrey8808 well woody never wanted to be a pet we got hi in as a rescue but igs are very complex & expensive reptiles to keep but with alot of training they can be great

  • My iguana greets me the same way as your woody does.... Only he does it when he's on his shelf tho, he's fine once he's on the floor. I'm going to try that idea with the squash too, i've never cooked his, I just use the peeler and shred it up for him.

  • @Scynthrina yea i've done them same but when i steam them they stay softer longer and the igs like the soft thick pieces :)

  • Comment removed

  • hey i saw u were using paper plates. Will the iguanas ever try to eat their plate as well as their food, if they do consume the paper plate, will it harm them??

  • @rugbylife4 yea sometimes i use paper plates or pyrex pie plates they keep the food wetter but yea if they eat a piece of a paper plate it wont hurt them, thats why i also use newspaper cause it would hurt them if they ate a piece

  • Your iguana is mean!

  • how come ur iguana is acting like an ass? do u play with him ever?

    

  • @66Fallout66Man66 he is a rescued ig we took into our rescue cause he was running wild and doesn't want to be a pet so we can't adopt him out so we cared for him for the rest of his life

  • I use a food processor to process the veggies like butternut squash, snow peas, red peppers, etc. Then store in ziploc bags. Woodstock reminds my of my ig. Lovely greeting isn't it? I keep a towel handy for distraction and to toss on top of him to get him fed.

  • were u bleeding on your thumb at 9:13 ?

  • @ultimus20 yep

  • woody dont act like he's cool to keep as a pet he acts like he needs to be grilled with some chipotle barbque sauce,corn on the cob,baked potato, and garlic bread!!.

  • Comment removed

  • this is gonna help when i get my iguana, imma call him chub chub

  • do iguanas eat worms

  • @shivamchauhan19 nope mainly greens, veggies and fruit

  • great video, thanks for uploading this. im getting a green iguana within the next month and cant wait. i already have 2 bearded dragons which are almost a year old and ever since ive been obsessed with reptiles (lizards especially)

  • @humptybon cool, glad u like it, yea love lizards their all cool

  • lol woody is an asshole

  • haha that reminds me of my old savannah monitor, (gave him back to the store in exchange for a dumerils boa) he would bite and would refuse to do what u wanted him to do

  • woody is damn agressive, his like get off my territory! with that display of dominance sign

  • hi binty! i have a trouble with my ig, i think she has MBD because i saw her shacking last night, she has not broken any bone that i know of, and she is on the breeding season and i just adopted her about a month ago, and i dont want to get her to a vet because i dont want to get her super stressed. i just changed the uvb light, she is about 3 years old and she is pretty large over a 3 foot, i want to give her the best treatment againts the mbd so what would you do :)?

  • @MrMMABoy btw can she have problems during the egg disaster with MBD?

  • @MrMMABoy YES it could kill her, you need to work hard to get her very healthy right now long before egg season around the end of the year or begining of next year, you sould get her bloodwork & an x-ray to see her bones, then order full megaray combo lighting, nutribac df, herptivite, & the calcium reptileuv,com sells with the megaray lights

  • @MrMMABoy take her to a reptile vet, u must know how bad the mbd is with a bone x-ray & bloodwork cause they can give her a calcium shot to give her a head start healing, order full megaray combo lighting, nutribacDF, herptivite & the calcium they sell all at reptileuv,com ask for Bob the owner & tell him u have a mbd iguana he will help u get everything u need

  • @MrBinty1440 make sure she has a big hidebox to take away stress, shaking means she is super low on calcium & her body is taking it away from her nerve endings even! make sure her basking temps are right too so she can digest food right u want her to be 98 degrees basking & at night keep her around 85 to 90 give her collards & dandelion greens in her food everyday too

  • Woody wuz pissd

  • @ryanreardon16 yea he was a wild boy back then! lol

  • that iguana is insane!!!!!

  • @1DylanDeffert1 yep thats why he could never be adopted out he was too wild back then

  • Uh, is it really necessary to pamper them like this? I'm not an iguana expert, but i'm pretty sure fruits and vegetables that grow in the wild are dirty.

  • @anthcybo well yes they are exotic animals who need allot more care then regular pets, also foods in the wild are not sprayed with pestisides either, their wild foods are better then what we have here, a 6 foot lizard needs allot of space like a big dog, in the wild they live up to 30 yrs as a pet usually 98% die in 2 yrs cause people dont know how to care for them, in 21 yrs i've learned the better u keep them the longer they live

  • theres iguana dry food right? they cn live on that right?

  • @TakerBride777 no that stuff is crap, it might be ok to use if your going out of town for a day and they need something to munch on till u get back home to make up real food, also allot of it is made with too much protein their body can't handle well, also igs need allot of moisture in the air & food or it makes their kidneys work too hard which is one of the main killers of igs

  • His finger was bleeding at the end.... woody got him!!!

  • @sm03kd yea hes fast!

  • great vid i learned litttle more on feeding thanks

  • @guitar446 check out my baby feeding video too, these are not even close to everything u need to know about making an iguana diet they just show what i fed that day and how i make up their food, theres allot more to know check out the food chart at greenigsociety,org for much more & anapsid,org for even more on foods & plants

  • Your iguana is very nice the first but the last I'm afraid is very aggressive

  • @yumenoai7 yea Woody was always wild but check out the woody update videos cause hes changed alot

  • woody bit you that had to hurt. that happened to me when my adult male was in mating season

  • @smile4dakillcam1 oh yea it did but check out the woodys aggression and urate stone video so see more of the damage he's given me when i first took him in but now he is much nicer, i got him fixed and he is also now on pain meds for tumors he has

  • chiedo scusa se con il mio inglese pessimo non ho capito alcune cose, ma allevo iguane da più di dieci anni e anche durante il periodo dell'accoppiamento non mi attaccano zompandomi addosso!!! il calcolo del cibo si fa tenendo come misura del piatto il doppio della larghezza della testa e un'iguana adulta deve fare almeno uno o due giorni di digiuno a settimana, non voglio dubitare della tua abilità, ma in giri ci sono tanti aspiranti che hanno bisogno di consigli giusti

    peace and love

  • @vandemor Ciao penso vostra chiedere quanto alimento ho alimentato alle mie iguane? ora ho avuto iguane per oltre 20 anni ed alimento loro tant'alimento come vogliono mangiare. Lo taglio per essere più piccolo allora lo spazio fra i loro occhi in modo da possono inghiottirli giusto ma taro i verdi con le mie barrette perché se utilizzate una lama rende il gusto di verdi amaro.

  • @MrBinty1440 Determinati giorni le mie iguane mangiano 1, 2, o 3 piatti di alimento e di determinati giorni che non mangiano niente ma hanno sempre alimento se lo vogliono.

  • la mia iguana non è così aggressiva, forse l'allevatore non è così esperto nel maneggiarla, e poi lava la verdura con il detersivo?!? bicarbonato per favore!! e la quantità di cibo è troppa!! infine se avete notato la coda dell'animale è ricresciuta dopo mutilazione.....

  • @vandemor this iguana was a rescue and doesn't want to be a pet he was in mating season so he was very aggressive when i made the video. vegetables here are sprayed with pestisdies so this is an all natural wash to get the pestisides off the greens, vegetables. i steam a few hard vegetables and yes his tail broke off years before we got him

  • @MrBinty1440 tutti e 3 i igs stavano mangiando 3 piatti di alimento come quel giornaliere esso non è troppo alimento quando sono grandi e crescenti, noi fa il salvataggio e la formazione dell'iguana per oltre 10 anni ed assegna della ricerca sulla loro cura dovreste dare sempre che un'occhiata a tutti i miei altri video educativi ed ai video del prodotto ho ugualmente per il Web site del reptileuv

  • was ur finger bleeding at the end?>

  • yep woodys fast! check out woodys urate stone and aggression video if u wanna see blood

  • god dam woody is mean

  • yea he came in as a rescue and doesn't want to be anyones pet! he cant be adopted out

  • ,man woody is like oh hell no u dont tell me what to do lol

  • lol yep

  • I didnt get to see the third Iguana

  • I love to see someone on youtube that actually knows how to take care of their iguanas! There's so much misinformation here and I really worry for the iguanas of inexperienced owners. This is a great video though!

  • Thanks, yep i try to get the newest and best info and research out to others always

  • U t crazy he would make me pee my pants

  • lol guess what, he even sleeps with me now sometimes

  • y is woody so aggressive towards you

  • hes a rescue and didn't want to be anyones pet we took him in and thought he was young and he could be rehabbed but he couldn't so he is one of our sanctuary iguanas and we will care for him the rest of his life, check out the 11 woody update videos on how his life has changed since this video was made

  • ive added to my faves and subscribed thanks for showing this vid it has been very helpful

  • Thanks glad u like it i have tons more of them :)
