i ask this as a question cuz i want to do right by my little guy. i already have an adult female that is such a lap lizard i don't have to worry about taming on her. my little guy gets handled everyday by both me and my wife. i will sit on the sofa with him and let him think hes going somewhere passing him from hand to hand, i try not to restrain him cuz he doesn't like that and squirms worse when i do. if i give him the freedom to explore an area around me where i know i can reach out and grab him hes good with that. when he has exhausted himself or so it seems i guess hes exhausted himself he will lay in the crook of my arm up against my body and sprawl out his legs for awhile. then when he thinks noone is paying attention he will try to run off only to be caught and corrected, i even let him wiggle between the sofa cushions and start getting under the cushion a little before i grab him out again. i have learned that he will jump so i never hold him open handed anymore when walking around with him. the only time he seems to get a little aggressive and i mean a little like a small tail whip, not even what i would call a tail whip or unlike an iguana tail whip i should say, is when reaching for him in his hide box. its more like i startled him. after that its happy happy to be out and about.
