Re:Do Rhino Iguana make good pets - 2008/02/17 05:31
Yes, I agree. They are several knowledgable breeders of these out there. They are fascinating animals. They are firecrackers when they are young and there are differences of opinions on how to deal with this. Most say, they will not calm down for a few years until they get bigger so be prepared for that. Some advise handling, other advise letting them come to you. So you must have lots of patience and understanding and be committed to them for a long time. They are by no means a beginner lizard but if you have these qualities, are experienced, do the research and get input from others and welcome the time and space committment, then go for it. Fortunately, they are available in the US by some good breeders out there at the moment and should be for years to come. I've dealt with taming many species of lizards for years with handling different techniques but I'd advise the wait for them approach for these guys using various methods of food coaxing. They may not all be the same, and dispositions may vary according to the parents and the initial treatment at birth. Here is a pic of one of my Multihorns
