I just got my iggy yesterday and everytime i pick him up, he throws himself up against the side of his cage (a regular sized terrarium). He is only about a foot long and we’re gonna build a bigger habitat soon. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Hi Welcome to the forum,

"TIME & PATIENCE" are my two magic words...You need to let him acclimate to his new home....

Here is a link to go and read about acclimation: acclimation

We also have a post for new iggy owners I will bump it up to the top of the page, it titled New iguana owners please read....go there and you will find all kinds of info....and if you have any questions. feel free to just ask.....
