Sure, I'll get them up tomorrow.

Yeah, Krone is weird. Some days he'll lunge at me as soon as I slide open his window to feed him. Other days he'll just stare at me. He'll lunge at me with his mouth open and even feel his teeth but he won't clamp down or bite. LIl guy is crazy! lol.

My 2 year old Russet Iguana. He is not the friendliest fellow. In fact I think he would like to take a bite out of me. He just came in from his outdoor cage. I use a dog kennel transfer cage to lure him into it from his large outdoor cage with food. Then carry it in the house and lure him into his in house cage. I'll be glad when the summer temps come so he can stay outside for a few months. The indoor color ins not good. He is not green but more like the russet you see on his head. I'll try to film him outside this week

Mine does it all the time now. When I feed him now, he'll lunge and stand on top of his dish! He'll even tailwhip me a little. lol. If I keep my hand in there a while, he'll stop. Funny little bugger!

Mine does the same thing but not everytime, he'll hiss and lunge but dont bite,thats him saying he's the boss and its his cage again as they get older they should stop that,but funny how they act all tuff lol.
