I have heard of and seen people who tattoo their animals, this is mostly done for identification. I have also heard of but have not actually seen, people who pierce animals in places such as thier ears. I wouldn't put it past anyone to do something as silly as pierce an iggy's dewlap, infact, come to think of it, I seem to remember reading something about this practice somewhere but I just can't recall where. If I happen to trip over the website I'll make sure to pass it along to you.

Other than the dewlap, how does the ig look? It sounds to me like someone at some time has paid attention to him if he really is socialized.

As for teens getting a bad rap .... I think I should probably keep my mouth shut but I am tired and common sense is fleeting. It's not just teens who are irresponcible -it is humans in general. The fact of the matter is though, most iguanas were bought as pets for children who turn into teens and forgo their iggy in favor of boys, girls, sports, extra curricular activities, etc. It's not just iggys either, I have seen my share of dogs and cats get the same brush off. My mother used to have a sign on our fridge that said "Attention all teenagers -It is my advice that you get out into the world now when you know it all instead of waiting till you become older and apparently loose the ability to know anything" I never understood what that meant until I became a little older. I'm not saying that all teenagers behave the same way, unfortunately I have seen my fair share of teens who do behave poorly and act even worse as adults. Just my 2 cents
