She's so cute. I wish I had space for an iguana :(

How friendly is she?

She is very, very sweet, i would even go as far as to say she is dog-like... She follows me around the reptile room when i am cleaning the snake cages or feeding them, when she wants attention she will follow me until i pick her up and pet her, she cuddles with me when i am relaxing on my bed, she loves to be pet on her head and neck, and she comes running whenever i say a word.
Her only problem is that she hates men, otherwise i can't say a negative thing about her.

Absolutely! :P

She chased a guy friend of mine around the house until he was able to get away from her by getting on top of the kitchen counter. LOL .. I found it funny, him? not so much.

So pretty i would love one but I heard their care is on the high end lvl

They are slightly expensive to care for - $60 for her UVB/UVA bulb every six months (I personally use two UVB/UVA bulbs for her so that would be $120), $20+ a month for her food, and $20+ every two or so months for supplements.
The space, attention, and time they require is a whole other story, i would say it is beyond any other reptile you can own but in the end it is very rewarding.

One day, I wanted one growing up so bad but my parents didn't haha

I'm so excited for our little guy to get bigger! To say I was a little taken aback when my boyfriend brought him (maybe her, we can't tell yet) home would be an understatement, but they really have an ability to gauge their surroundings that I've never seen before in a lizard. Slowly learning, but I'm encouraged by all the information available now. Ricci is gorgeous!
