why won't she let you? they're soooo cute? I had iguanas when i was little, so i was going to get one, but my hubby liked the water dragon better, so we got one. Then that one almost died... it think it was sick when we got it, so we took it back and got "buddy" (that's his name). He's really skiddish, and freaks out whenever i put my hand in the tank.
They get like 3 feet long, so he'll have free roam of the house when he's big enough. He'll also eat feeder fish too... i'm excited about that!!!
