#2275661 Medichick911 View Profile	My GREEN Iguana Is Turning BROWN! Help! Occasionally, "June" -my baby green iguana- turns a brownish color. I usually notice this when I wake up in the morning. I have a feeling this has something to do with her heating/lighting. I currently have a UVA bulb and a UVB bulb over her enclosure for daytime use (as well as a log that she can climb to get closer to the heat source if she wants to), and a blue nighttime light. I also have a CHE, but I didn’t think I would need that during the summer months. I tried using the CHE (along with the blue nighttime light) last night, and that seemed to help. Should I try using a higher wattage heat light during the day? Or is it safe to keep a CHE on 24/7 (along with her regular heat light and UVB bulb)? Can someone tell me why baby June is turning brown??? Thanks in advance! Heather
