I have a year and a half old iguana that just will not come around.I have raised blackthroat and sav monitors as well as many other types of lizards.I take him out everyday,I am patient and calm with him,have no other pets around to intimidate him.He tolerates me never shows aggression but spends all his time trying to get away.I try hand feeding treats etc.It has been over a year so my question is has anyone else experienced this and still managed to have their iguana come around to be very friendly to free roam and be a nice pet.Thank you.

Your iguana may need more time to setle down. Also are you shure there is not something inside or outside the cage that its bodering her? Something like too much or lack of enough heat, a smell (like cigarete smoke or a smell from the actual cage), too much or not enough ligth, lack of hidding places, the precence of a tv, radio,etc? Your ig can still be a great pet all you need its figuring out what he needs or what´s bodering it and he will come around. Do you have cats, dogs, snakes or kids near?
