First, its way too cold where you are to keep them out all year with no heat. Secondly all feral I guanas are Iguana i. rhinolopha, thats the Central American subspecies. You still haven't told me what you have but it really doesn't matter because of your location. You could keep it outside as an adult providing you had a heated retreat to secure it in at night. I don't even leave my neonate Albinos out if it drops below 60 degrees and I live in Broward County. There are NO populations of feral Iguanas where you are. You might see one now and again but there's no real numbers like here where there are probably tens of thousands just in Ft. Lauderdale alone. Its perfectly all right to keep it outside in good weather in fact they do much better with exposure to sunlight. You must of course provide shade as well.....TC
