Looks like a banana phase C. Pectinata.

That is what I was going to say too. If you haven't already, you can post it to the Cyclura and Ctenosaura board.

They love the MK salad...at least my former spiny tail did. They do really well on that stuff; it gives them energy.

Hey now...be nice Cindy. The banana morph of C. pectinatas are one of the nicest (really easy to tame) pet lizards (I have more than 60) I have ever had....unlike C. similis. They are highly desired and typically sell for between $300 to $400 as babies. I have heard of one adult female being sold in Japan for $3000 this year.

haha...I have heard that Ctenosaurs take after the personalities of their "keepers/slaves."
