    That lil guy is awsome. My iguana was 5 1/2 feet before I had to have his tail amputtated (bad blood circulation. He's 18 yrs old. There are a few pics of him on this site) As for keeping him caged I would start getting him used to roaming the house and learning his limits (rules) Mine hasn't been in a cage in 10 years and he's paper trained and everything. I'm a huge fan of big lizards and think its really cool when some1 ACTUALLY takes care of one. Make sure you handle him ALL the time and he will stay being a great pet. Reps to you!

    Edit-Make sure you cut his claws with a dremel tool. Cuz they can rip the hell outta yoru skin

    Do it now before he matures into an adult and becomes territorial. Mine ended up loving fury animals and was best pals with the family cat and actually defended her anytime we wanted to scold her. But yeah I would put on a pair of welding gloves. Pinch his mouth shut and introduce him to the dogs. As for the claws. Dremel them down just before you reach the vain. It will save your forearms a lot of pain
