Clearly thats to good to be true. You get what you pay for. What help do you need? Finding a large enclosure?

If you want to buy one, look on amazon for Catios. They're like big cages made for cats. Cover the sides with plastic to hold humidity and add a base and its good for most iguanas.

You can also look at Custom Cages if you want something nicer. Otherwise, just build it yourself.

Build you own. I just devoted a bed room and used it like a terrarium. I lived in CO so had very low humidity but had 3 iguanas all happy and healthy for many years. One made it 24 years. They all took regular baths, daily most the time. They free roamed the house. One went to work with me each day. On days off he'd walk around my neighborhood. Came home at 6pm like clockwork.

You build one. Only way around it. Or convert a room. There are no enclosures suitable for sale
