thats a haul .. back in the 80's iguanas and constrictor snakes were a cool pet, every pet store had them .. nobody imagined what would happen ..
Yup...
Now we have people keeping exotic spiders, Caymans, and all manner of poisonous and exotic snakes...
We haven't learned a thing.
 
Could you give us a ruff estimate of how much iguana meat and eggs sell for?
My buddy and I sell the iguanas whole for $3 a pound, $10 a pound skinned and gutted. And if anyone wants to buy 30 or more we sell then for $15 a piece depeding in size. Eggs we are selling for .45 cents to .60 cents a piece depending on how many.

Yeah, and it's crazy how we barely make a dent in the grand scheme of things.

Thank you! It's actually not a side gig but what I do all year long, I picked up a security job as a side gig for the early and late months of the year where it gets slower when it's cold.
