As you may have read from my post below I'm planning on adopting a 6 yr old female ig named aesch from my girlfriends cousin.

he no longer has the time to take proper care of her so i'm taking her from him.

now aesch wasn't mistreated or poorly taken care of or anything but in the last few years she hasn't been handled alot and becuase of that has become a little anit-social.

I was wondering how i might (if at all) be able to acclimate her into being handled more often without being a bit of a Bi%$h.

I would like eventually to be able to let her roam occasionally and to be comfortable being handled on a regular basis.

Any tips?

Derek

I think the theory is, any green iguana can be tamed, unless it's a male in the midst of raging hormones.
