I'm guessing that people don't go back and read posts added to previous threads so I'll post again.
Thanks for the tips, everyone. We've had good luck with misting, grapes/watermelons, and our Reptifogger is working again. Inca is still behaving normally. She's shedding very quickly this time--I think she's having quite a growth spurt.
I found a recommendation to keep the humidity levels at 60-75% Is this accurate?
I am so confused about how the urates should look. She has less of the white part now, but that's probably because she's shedding and eating less. She has smaller poops now too, but she still goes every day.
Her urates are white and stringy (egg-white like), but it looks like there's some yellow film/goop around them. The color varies. Her poops are consistent other than amount.
http://www.anapsid.org/iguana/feces.html - these pictures have some yellow, but the captions say they're normal. I think Inca's urates have been looking like this. Some white, with a little yellow.
I don't know if I should be concerned or not.
We think she's 1-1.5 years old (she was abandoned, and we took her in in August). She's about 36" long snout to tail. I have to get a S-V length on her now that she's grown some more. She has proper lighting, UVB, and food/supplements. Her enclosure is a little small, but we're hoping to finish her new enclosure soon.
Thank you!
