Hi. I read your articles on sexing iguanas and on size. I also took a measurement of his SVL tonight. His SVL is 7 inches. SO from the chart on your sight if he is actually 18mos old he might be a little small. There was another poster down the board somewhere (mr2id i think) that had posted a pic, wondering about the sex of their ig, and you couldn't see any femoral pores, so some were leaning toward it being a girl. Ozzy's femoral pores are more developed than that one was. I guess maybe I was just expecting them to stick out a little further. So from everything I have read and pictures I have seen I am leaning toward Ozzy being a boy, but I guess only time will tell for sure. But boy does he have an attitude. When we got him out tonight to measure him, I was petting the top of his head, and he had his eyes closed, seemed quite calm and then all at once whamo he tried to bite me, I moved quick enough he didn't get me though. LOL Thankfully he is small enough his bites don't hurt much, just hope he tames down before he gets big enough for those bites to do some damage. But honestly after my recent experience of grooming my male himilayan cat, who has huge fangs that he is not afraid to use, those little lizard teeth don't faze me too much. LOL Well hubby is making pretty good progress on the cage. All that is left to do is the door and the top, so with in a few days Ozzy will have his new cage. Thanks for all your help and everyone else who has responded. Tami
