I finally caught my first bananna phase C. Pectinata. I've been looking for one for over 4 years. I'll be breeding her soon. Now I need a male.

Enjoy

Here is another Pic.

Did you catch it? If so, where? I tried to catch some spiny-tails bare-handed once in key biscaine, it's very difficult, I only caught one. Anyway, down there I saw some really wierd lookin' ones. Some had lots of blue green, yellow, and orange (I'm sure they were spiny tails as was made obvious by the tails). I never saw any quite as intense as that one. What type is it?

Yeah, I catch the ones in Key Biscayne frequently. The ones from Key Byscayne are Ctenosaura Similis. The one in the picture is C. Pectinata. They are hard to catch. Especially the yellow or "bananna phase". They are not as common.

HAHA got ya! No but seriously that is a great looking animal. I know of a breeder so if you are looking for more just say so. The animals you sent are doing well. Keep posting. Get up some pics of the adult pecs-I love em. The male I sent you a pic of that I got up hear at the pet store is awesome. He is starting to turn orange above and behind the forelimbs. They are spectacular animals! Tom

That would be an awesome looking Spinny(Albino), too bad i'm just kidding. I am in the process of catching one now that is School Bus Yellow. I'll post the pics when I catch her.

Great to know the Pecs I sent you are doing well. Drop me an e-mail with that breeder's info.
