you can try holding him every day. sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt. do hold him until he is comfortable with you tho. also some iggs never tame down. they each have there own personality. just work with him and i think you will be alright.

I have a 4 foot iguana that use to be aggressive but know she's my third best friend. when my iguana was aggressive i threw here cage in storage and let her become a free roamer. My room became her cage. Because me and my iguana shared a room we were always next to each other. I did everything on my bed and that was her favorite spot she tamed down a lot because of this. I think iguanas are smart and don't like to feel like there locked up. If you give it space and show your a friend and not a threat they will Com down. Another thing i think you should do is feed her out of your hand until she trust you. AS soon as i get the soft wear to post pictures i will show you my baby until then heres an old pic of my burmese python.

Thanks
