Do you know the sexes yet? Could it be males and females?

Not really as they are still small - less than 2 years .

I am guessing that too but I have pretty round Breeder Male and pretty elongated breeder Female .

If only I could sex them sooner ( keep all the female and sell only male ) LOL

I would keep two males. In case God for bid something happens to one. But you can send me one of them.

Sorry to say I am grossly distracted with your avatar. Being a herbivorous reptile person tortoises tend to win over most of my attention. But then someone has to creep in with Fijian Iguana images that sorta re-directs me.

I don't intend to pry where it is inappropriate, but are you also breeding those guys?

Oh' did I mention you're my tortoise hero. LOL

What is uncommon in the U.S. is the thicker solid bands in terms of the higher yellow canidates. The one at the top left would be my choice, not only because of that but it also has a yellow head. As adults, the yellow head stands out. Very nice growth to by the way, getting the same results here after some changes to the setups. Really makes a huge difference in the final look of an adult. What did it look like as a baby?

Yeah, when I buy radiata it's all about the skin color.

I know , some have patches or dots of on their yellow skin , looks dirty especially on their limbs and head !

As for the Fijian Iggy , yup !! I work with both the Banded and the Crested .

I have a friend in Germany who keeps and breeds two kinds of Fiji Iguanas.
