Laying on the bottom of cage.

[Eric]

Everyday i wake up and turn on the iguana's lights, give food, and fresh water. I go to work for 10 hours and when i come home the ig is usually laying on the bottom of the tank. Its a 20 gallon virtical style tank, 5.0 reptisun, and 75 watt bulb for heat. i feed him collard greens and sometimes mix in some squash or fruit. Do they sometimes just like to lay on the bottom because i dont think its too hot in there but im waiting on my thermometer in the mail.

Chances are your Ig is too hot. Are you keeping an eye on the temps? A 20 gallon enclosure no matter how it's shaped is too small to get proper temps. You need a bigger enclosure asap before you over heat your Ig. Over heating can kill you Ig.
