Clyde's 1st Birthday!

Clyde turned 1 yesterday!  We have made it past the hardest part (apparently the first year is very rough for iguanas).  No major issues; just some broken toes and shedding problems but he is doing really really well now.  He has quite the tank setup to help with his skin and we are not letting him roam around as much until he is a bit sturdier (he has too many crooky toes).

He is very healthy!  He is a bright green with some blues at times and he whips that tail and hisses when I have agitated him too much.  All great signs!  He is a sweetie though, he loves when his mommy cuddles him in his blankies and he will even let me hold him on his back like a baby (weirdo). He loves when we soak him in the tub and when his daddy scratches his head.  He is not particularly found of the boys…I won't lie he hates them, especially Walter (since W likes to look into his tank and bark).

He did not get to enjoy his starfruit birthday breakfast on the special red plate this year.  He is not old enough or calm enough to eat outside his tank…maybe in a few years.  No gifts either since iguana don't play with anything but we still made his day special!

Happy Birthday Clyde! We love you!!

 Fat and Happy! Can't barely move.


All puffed up and mad…has his beard out!
