Hi guys

What would be the biggest difference between a cornuta and a nubila, other than the looks?

Size, temperament, tameness (is that a word?), price?

Regards

Which one do you like the best? thats the answer. You will have it potentially a long time. All the things you asked about depends on the individual lizard and the time and care you giver it. If you can get info on the parents that will give you an idea of what may come. This forum can give you stories of which is better but it would probably break even its that close. hopefully they will post opinions

From what I've heard and read, Cubans, in general, seem to have a more predictable temperament. Everytime I have heard an anecdote about a bad bite from a Cyclura it has been a male rhino. Now, that said, every animal has it's own individual personality and you could get the world's sweetest rhino or the world's most temperamental Cuban. So as JF said, it's best to go with what you like.

I have only had expierence with Greenies and my Rhino and I can tell you that my female Rhino has def. been very different than the greens. She is moody, hates to sit on sholders and is kind of a grouch at times-

that being said, she also does things that are very sweet, and interactive like hissing at me and then jumping on my lap- I have heard that they are crazier than cubans, but at this present time I do not have any expierence with other Cyclura.
