Hey guys. Here's my little Cyclura cornuta. It's coming along nicely. I've had it for about 9 months now and it's growing like a weed and eating like a damn race horse. A nice pile of greens daily with some shredded squash and some occasional grapes or banana (less than 5% of the total diet).






I've already noticed some head bobbing and it's developing some pretty impressive femoral pores already. Also, you can (at least I can) notice the development of the jowels already. I'm hoping that it's a boy (wishful thinking, but hopefully those are all pretty positive signs). I use a mercury vapor bulb for it's basking site and it has a surface temp of about 120º F (not air temp) on the basking site. I offer a bowl of fresh water for drinking every 2 or 3 days and a small amount of crickets or super worms about once a month. Anyways, tell me what you guys think. Constructive criticism is always welcome!

-Shane
