Corinne,
it's kristen again,
... if you can sex and iguana like a beardie I def. don't think you have a male b/c when I was over last week and lifted up your iguana's tail at 90degrees there weren't clear hemipenal bulges. also the iguana does have pores but they weren't as large as I'd expect them to be for a male. my male beardies pores have that waxy stuff oozing out of them. So all in all,... I'd say you have a female. but of course you know I'm not an expert! i've seen pics on the net of typical healthy males too, i looked it up , and males typically have a wider head and squarer jowls, your ig has a more narrow jaw than i've seen in photos, and males have bigger dorsal spikes and your ig's spikes aren't very prominent

just my 2 sense
have a great week you guys
-Kristen
