i figured I'd start a thread where everyone can post pics of their cycluras. i thought it would be easier if they were all in one spot rather than searching through all the posts
ill stat. here's my new cuban. hes about 5 months old and 16-17"

Alright I'll play. Here's a pic at a few months old, and a recent one, 4 years later. He's about 38" now, and mostly packing on bulk at this point. I'm sure he'll get in the 40s, but I'm guessing low 40s. Which reminds me... take care when handling your hatchling in a glass enclosure like the one you have yours in. Those young'un tails are brittle and just want to break.

Anyway, I love my guy. Just last night he was hanging out with 4 little kids in the room and showed zero stress. He was basking and occasionally eating some pellets or a leaf, and accepting some head scratches all the while. I say this because I was one of those "my cyclura will never calm down" guys. I know better now... I listened to everyone and just let him be and he's now known to climb in laps and look for scratches and fruit treats, following people around etc.

Alright, have a blast. Enjoy him while he's small. They get big overnight and never go back to being small...

Here is Frank the Tank....the local wild child at the moment! I do not have any pics of him when he was a baby since I aquired him at the age of two from the NARBC Anahiem show. So far he has his moments. I am hoping he tames down..but right now he seems to still be pretty skittish. Time will tell!

Yeah, I actually pulled my old hoody out for just that purpose, I wanted the scope to be similar. How is your new guy? I want to drop by and see him and your latest set up one of these days.

he is doing fine, he would come out more if it would ever stop raining. He is already exchanging bobs with my male, he's got spunk.
pm and we will set something up when you are across the bridge.
I cant believe I typed "close" for clothes. duh

one more pic, lewisi cross head shot.

Here is an excellent hybrid, almost "PURE LOOKING" except for a slightly too short of a head to suit me...thanks

He was cold when I took these pics. Today we were in the low 80's and his body was the color of his head and his head was intense blue. I'll try to ge better pics...

Thanks Lokii,

The substrate is aspen chips.

I'm ashamed to say that I have no current photos of any of my Cyclura. I can share some older pics, tho.

I still like the one in the top pic but I think you know that by now...LOL

Tom, it was evident when he was young that he was going to be a looker. He had a very clear color, minimal black markings, and sometimes seemed to have an overall pinkish hue. This is a photo of him at 18 months.

Nahhh. Got some green iguanas, ball pythons and boa constrictors. A few kings and corns too.

And Tom, why do you think I pick older friends? I can be there to help out at the end...

I'm a bit late to post here, but the first picture is Teil, my male lewisi/nubila hybrid at 1 year old(from Glades herps- Ehrig?), the second pic is him approaching 3 years. It's cool to see the line-up of all these hybrids, I love comparing them.

Heres my 100% Cuban. He's over a year and a half old.

Lady Cycluras in the house!!!

My Petranella...now age 4

I figured out hoe to do this! Here are some pics of Kismet. She is seven years old.
