Now thats a happy iguana. I too like that book. However I dont agree on 2 things that books advices on. I dont agree on "training" your iguana, it will only create stress for both, good chances that the lizard wont lissen to you and its a waste of your time and energy. Iguanas should be tamed with the maximum patience you have and if necessary potty trained wich is fairly quick and easy (mine are both), but now train your iguana to avoid it from climbing into furniture and using "No" to avoid missbehavior?! Forget about it. I also dont agree on facing your testosterone full breeding seazon agressive male, to show him your the "alpha iguana", it will put you at risk because now he wants to rematch and you will endup badly bitten. Agressive males should be isolated and let alone untill their madness naturaly goes away! As simple as that!
