Quick question...has your iguana mated a male iguana recently? Some people are unaware of the fact that female iguanas, like chickens, will lay eggs without mating with a male once they are sexual mature. (which is when they reach about 10" snout to vent length). A healthy female that has reached this size should lay eggs every year for the rest of her life. Mating is not necessary for her to produce these eggs.

My apologies if this is not news to you. I'll look up incubation time when I get a chance, unless someone beats me to it! :) Good luck.

Best,
Jamie/JBug

: does anyone know how long iguanna eggs take to incubate from the time they are laid to hatch?
