Yes they can go into breeding season twice in a year. Unfortuantly sometimes they never seem to come out of breeding season. Mine went into its first breeding season and was not aggressive to me at all. Only wanted to make it with all my cats!!LOL~ Just when i thought it was all over a month later he went into it again and has been so aggressive to me i have wondered what it was that made me get an iguana! Of course the first time he bit me i was in shock that my sweet iggy could do such a thing!! But after the second and third i realize he hates me!LOL~ or maybe its just the hormones talking~hehehe~~ good luck and be careful!

Hello,
: My 3 1/2 year-old Iguana, Igg, went through his normal breeding season from October to January. He doesn't become aggressive at all, but doesn't eat and is very restless.
: A few days ago, I was spending some time with him and I've noticed that his femoral pores have become very large. I ran my hand across them and they left white powder streaks on my hand. He's becoming restless, but is still eating. I've also noticed him head-bobbing at his mirror, which he rarely does.
: Is it unusual for Iguana's to have two "breeding seasons" within 12 months? If so, does the second season last the usual 3-4 months? Has this happened to any other iguanas out there?
