Mitch,

Yes, I agree with my fellow postees, you need to get a larger enclosure, ASAP. Also, are you sure of the sexes of your two iguanas? How big are they now?

I have noticed that when keeping females around males, a head bobbing female can only mean trouble. Most males take this as an extremely aggressive move. I have made the mistake of handling a head bobbing female, while my male was out and about. I have the scar on my right cheek to prove it. Also, iguanas get jealous. When you talk to one, the other can get the evil eye going and begin to posture. This again can only end badly.
Good luck...
