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.

One day I would like to get down to Florida and get some Iguanas.

I've taken a bike ride on one of the trails down there and couldn't believe the number of Iguanas just chilling out on the banks of the canals

 

[AirShot]

That sure looks like FUN !!

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.

Supposedly some restaurants sell it but I could not tell you which ones.

More like fried iggy drum sticks and eggs. The eggs kinds taste like parmesan crisps. I found them to be tastier when mixed with a chicken egg.
