I was told she was by someone who is very knowledgeable with iguanas so im pretty sure its a female.

If you do an image google search on Male Iguana sexing you will be able to see some excellent photos of the femoral pores as well as location and bumps of the hemipenes. Once the animal is over a year and a half it should be easy to tell.
Either male or female it's very pretty.

Very nice colour. Im no ig expert but she looks good and healthy right now despite prior care. My GF has an ig. The Iguana and I have a love hate relationship. I love him, he hates me. Maybe thats overembellishing....I guess we have an "understanding"

Was your ig interested in eating the pumpkin? MMMmmmmmm tasty succulent gourd.
