First...good job on your first enclosure! Congrats!

The only thing I would be wary about is the hardware cloth material. I think it is pretty creative how you utilized it for that loop inside the cage, however, I do think your ig could hurt himself pretty badly on it. I cut myself enough with that stuff to last a lifetime! Anyway, I would keep an eye on that and maybe replace it with some homeade ladders out of pvc and wood dowels or rope (both of these work great).

If your iguana starts to rub too much on the sides of the cage, he will get nasty scars all over his nose/mouth. If you are lucky, he won't rub. If you aren't so lucky, build your next cage out of the plastic or rubber coated wire.

Basically, you will see how your ig reacts over time to the cage and judge for yourself what modifications you will make...and from that data, you will probably build your next cage differently. Every cage we build has been completely different!
