- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Our male green iguana approximately 5yo.
His aggression is about as low as I expect it to get.
This video is just showing some current interaction.
Might be a bit boring unless you are reptile nerd like myself 😜
He is a bit twitchy about me touching his dog-bed in the window. That is definitely his property
I'm wearing a hockey helmet because of his previous aggression towards me.
Also, as long as I'm wearing it, he keeps calm. If I take it off, he wants to fight me again! 🤷🏼♀️
** GREEN IGUANAS ARE NOT GOOD PETS**
They require enormous amount of space, food and time. Heat, lights humidity cost a fortune.
When they reach sexual maturity at about 2 years old. They can get very aggressive and dangerous.
They can bite a finger off an adult person and disfigure you, your kids or your pets for life.
Always do extensive research before getting any pet. And if you can, adopt/rehome an animal in need of a home.

Beautiful, It's nice to see this longer footage of this guy when he's chilled out like this. You get to see the real relationship underneath all that instinctual aggression from your other videos.
Such a graceful giant here.
Thank you very much 😊👍
Glad you like the length of the vid. Though it might be a little long without any particular progression or any commentary.
But it had been a while since my last upload. So I wanted to put something up here.
I can never seem to find the time to do the editing of the footage.
You make it look so easy in your videos 😅
@@anjatrorup1612 I like watching the animal's behavior so I like when people post uncut or longer stuff like this.
With mine sprawled out on my chest with her head on my neck right now watching this lol I have tears in my eyes 🥹 they are such beautiful creatures and the bond is so well worth the wait. Your boy is just beautiful and you've done so much work and shown him so much love ❤️ you make my heart smile !! 🥹 easy to see how much he loves you back ❤️ 🦎❤️
So handsome in that opening shot. So much calmer than the other vids, much more accepting of your touch. Crawling on you, tasting you over and over. I think you may have hit a mile marker here. Is he coming out of breeding season? Or is he a handful year round?
Thank you for the nice comment 😁👍
He gradually came out of breeding season around April. It started in December.
Though for the last two years, it seemed that he was never really completely out of it, all year round.
He is almost as calm now, as he was before his first season in dec. 2021.
I'm gonna expect him to get aggressive again, come December. But he is already almost at maximum size for an adult male (8+ kilograms). So I'm hoping that we are all set up for another season.
No more emergency security measures.
And I keep my fingers crossed that his worst behavior is behind us. 😊
That thing will definitely eat you if you die in the house and nobody else is around. Just so you know.
@@genghiskhan7041 I guess he just have to munch away then.. 😂
Those darn herbivores can be so morbid.
Hopefully my boyfriend and my workplace will notice I'm gone, before he finishes eating me.
You still haven't learned anything. Mind blowing
