Yeah that is cool to see,rob ehrig told me who the parents were of my russets,and i've dealt with him before and hes as honest as they come.But true you never know.

I am 55 and my rhino MAY out live me , if i do my part and take good care of him . I wish i was younger or had got him earlier . But being retired i have plenty of time to take care of him . I am in his room at least 3 hours or more a day. I have him in one of the extra rooms in out basement , in that room is his cage , a table with Moringa trees growing on it ,and a recliner to sit in . Not sure how long his 3'x8' cage will last him . Not sure if i will add on to it , or make a new one . ?? I order a compact florescent bulb and another MVB from MegaRay a hour ago . still want to get a solar meter soon .

NO INSULT at all !!

I saw Rhino Iguana in a reptile store in Chico Calif 15 years ago +/- while on a truck route . I new where all the Fly shops and Reptile shops were in just about any town in N Calif . So that where i would take my lunch breaks . Just didn't have the time or space until now . I was working 60 hour weeks and trying to play dad , husband and doing church stuff . I wanted a Rhino iguana after seeing my first one in Chico .

Thats awsome all the lunch stops were thing you liked lol.My first reptile was a green iguana when i was 11 years old 22 years ago lol,then about 8 to 9 years ago i was on www.bluetegu.com and was buying a albino tegu off ron st pierre and saw his rhino iguana picture were this huge rhino was on a piece of log he had and i was like i want a rhino iguana and thats how my rhino iguana keeping started.

Hey 40 is the new 20 . I spoke to tom a week ago he offered to sell me one of the three he kept from Wilma's last clutch for $400 including shipping.

 

[teguboy77]

[herpgirl2510]

I wanted to start with one a little older. It has never been handled I wanted one that had been handled before he is 18 months old.
