Cold Green Iguana Broken Leg

By Kelly at 07/12/07 14:18

, Iguanas: Poor Goblin broke his thigh bone This is Goblin the green iguana's x-ray of his poor broken leg. He climbed a tree in the backyard, which wasn't a problem since green iguanas are arboreal creatures, but as the evening progressed and got chillier, he either fell to the ground or caught his leg climbing down (I vote for the first option).

When iguanas are cold they pretty much lose their body control and can't really move around very well. I think he got so cold that he just couldn't hold onto the tree any more and fell about thirty feet down.

I honestly didn't notice his injury until about a week later since there wasn't any blood or any obvious weird behavior. I noticed the lump on his thing when I took him out to bask in the sun on the desk rail and saw how he was just kind of hanging his leg there.

The vet took this x-ray and it showed a completely broken thigh bone just a ways above his knee joint. Also note in this picture (on the positive) the perfectly formed and straight toe bones in his feet. This is indicative of healthy bone formation due to the proper diet, light and heat while his bones were forming.
