: hey iguana chick, i guess thats true a female
: can bite just as much as a male can. you sure tried to bite me only joking. bless you for rasing 5 iguanas dont they fight when they see each other have you had any behavior problems with any of your iguanas?????? are they all adults good luck mike see ya

No, not all of them are adults, we have everything from a 4 inch hatchling that someone abandoned to a 4 foot female. No, they don't fight when they see each other but there is always lots of head bobbing . Yes, we have had to deal with behaviorial problems with almost all of them, including the 2' foot female (stl measurement -she had lost a portion of her tail before arriving here) biting my husband on Chrsitmas Eve. She acts up worse than anyone, she has even lunged at the hand that feeds her, but we love her and continue to work through her attitude problems on a daily basis.

These are not the only igs we have ever had, these are just who is living with us currently. We knew the issues and possible problems going into this and are willing to take all the responcibility that comes along with having an ig. Good or bad, aggressive or calm, it is our job to take care of them.
