Female Iguanas will lay eggs when they become sexually mature, which is around 1.5 to 2 years old. They do not need to be fertilized to lay so therefore do not need a male Iguana. They need to be healthy before they lay or else there can be very serious problems. They will also need a nest box to lay their eggs. If you suspect your Iguana is gravid (has eggs) a vet trip is highly recommended to make sure she does not become egg bound as this can be fatal.

Yes. Considered a THREATENED species the iguana's eggs are preyed upon by feral cats,dogs and rats. This species is found only on the Galapagos Islands.
