I think a lot of people do care about them and are very interested in them, but true banana pectinata are difficult to acquire as they sell fast and are presently produced in small numbers. That may be changing somewhat...
These are yellow pectinatas that are very nice. I have been really researching pictures and these guys over the past few days and, as everyone else has said, ask for pictures of the adult breeders. Size is also indicative of what you may be working with. The markings on the legs and body are also different. Though I bet these animals may get more yellow over time, they are not the banana pectinata we are talking about here. I was hoping they would be, but now I know more and am still learning about these pectinata forms and potential subspecies. The seller and I have made arrangements to get these animals back to him and refund my purchase, so things are working out and he has been helpful.

Thanks Mark, Kelly, and Ty.
