after about half an hour I ussually put her back in the cage.
This works great until he gets bigger, then they want to be on your shoulder/head and it kills your neck to have 13lbs of lizard hanging from your earlobe.

I always made my guy stay on my forearm so he wouldn't get his feelings hurt when I wouldn't let him on my head anymore.
Also he likes sitting on the back of the couch while i'm in the living room.

When I had my iguanas, one got out of his enclosure one day. He found his way to a open window, knocked out the screen and jumped out. I was in the back yard doing something. I just happened to look down to my driveway and see an iguana. Not the typical wildlife here in Pittsburgh, PA. At first I thought to myself "There is a iguana in my driveway that looks like mine." Then I saw the screen and thought "OH NO!!" Luckily he was not afraid of me, and I got to him before he got to a tree.

LMAO! thats what happens to me everytime I try to take him out of the cage! We usually end up him jumping out and running all over my room and me after it trying to catch it lol.

I really need to stop that.
