The one you refer to is C. c. figgensi. Secondly C. n. nubila and C. n. caymanensis seem to be the species that get the tamest more often. Any species may become very tame but those 2 are the most frequently seen very tame ones. Personaly I let my lizards be what they are,lizards. I don't go out of my way to work with any of them. I first bred Cyclura in the early 1970's and pioneered keeping them outside yearound in S. Fl. If you give all the support the lizard needs good things will follow. You should NEVER force yourself on the lizard. Then if they decide to make you a part of their lives you've done a great job. It is also easier if you understand Cyclura behaviours. I've studied them in nature and in captivity for many years and it seems I can tell what a lizard is going to do BEFORE they do it by their body language. Good luck......TC
