He is so much bigger now, around 10 months old ! He looks meaner and less baby like... I will take some photos tonight and upload them tomorrow for your eyes!
Oh, and he is still as tame as he was when i got him, actually bit more tame... On his age, i take him out without a leach where ever i go and he is so chilled out with all the people around him.

I just got my first Iguana (5 months old) I am in the process to making him tame. It is such a mission. I am doing this one walkthru that you just not tame him but train him as well.

One day I want my Iguana to be potty trained. Here is the link that shows how to train your Iguana (http://www.greenigsociety.org/taming.htm)

Yes, i got with my first iguana i had in 2007 info on taming from that site... My previous iguana (Yoshi) was very mean and a bad@ss, actually sold him here on this forum...
But this one is very tame and easy to handle, for example... Last night my power went off, and this morning he was a bit cold... So i took him out of the enclosure, got back in bed and fell asleep... Woke up, he was with me under the sheets with his head on my pillow next to me! Was cute!

Here is some new pics of him... Sorry for the quality though.

You are so lucky to be able hold him. Mine just allowed me to begin touching it without running away. I am a while away before I can pick mine up.

I put my infra red off at night because was think it bothered him. That he does not go to sleep. I wil start keeping it on at night.

yeah, that still need the heat... Not as much in the day, but betweet 26-28 is good for the evenings.
They cant see red, so dont worry about it bothering him.. Can be alot of things why he doesnt goto sleep... Not the proper humidity, heat, sleeping spots etc... Or too much noise or movement where his enclosure is etc...
