: I'm curious to how everyone trims their iguanas nails...procedures and equipment. Me...I use a nail clipper and I clip whenever there is a free chance to clip a nail or two. I also have a cauterizer, I read that it was a nicer way of doing their nails, but in my experience my iguana didnt care for it much..maybe he just has to get used to it.

Right now I'm doing them myself (like you, when he's laying down, I get as many as I can and then try to remember which ones I missed - LOL). Once I'm sure breeding season is over, I will take him back to the vet. They do it for $5 and I take him maybe once every 3-4 weeks. I had promised them at the vet's office if he started getting aggressive (which he did to a point), I would wait until he was done to bring him back.
