Hi all,
I saw a couple of these guys and am considering buying them. There is not much info. on these guys on the web. Also, I would like to know what is the fair price for them. Thanks.

Mark M on the cyclura/ctenosaura forum breeds them and would know the cost. My Ally was one - and my best experience with him was an ig salad with increased fruit, and mealworms once or twice a week. Calcium deficiency was never an issue, and I rarely used supplements. However, hydration on a continual basis is essential. They also need hideboxes as they are extremely skittish. Mark M says they are difficult to get established, mine took six weeks. The most important issue for Ally was space - when I temporarily housed him in a new five foot green ig cage, he became "Tarzan" and just thrived. For such a tiny ig, they sure can move! Oh, and lastly - they can play dead.
Good luck,
Wendy
