I've had Merlin now for a little over a month...I've built her a big cage and she is doing fine. She is 32" total length.

Questions....
Do iguana's colors change (get darker /Lighter) when they get older?
I have seen iguana's that are BRIGHT BRIGHT green and others are brownish...why is that?
My iguana is not very green...but more green than brown...she has quite a few black speckles on her. The only thing that is peculiar is her tail is sort of whitish in appearance...and has more white and blackish/brown than green in it. Why is this?
How far up do i clip her fingernails and can i use a human clipper or should i buy a special one for igs....
I've only had her for a month or so and she eats willingly out of my hands...is this a sign of her being tame or do most "young" iguanas eat out of hands.

well thats all i can think of for now. I know those are quite a few questions but people in here are really good at answering every question i ask. I...no...We appreciate that.
