Rhino igs: Cyclura cornuta

I just got my first Cycluran iguana on a trade yesterday. It is 20 some odd inches long. It is very healthy, very active, and VERY wild. It is one crazy lizard, and that is coming from a guy who works with wild C. similis!

first off. what sex do you think it may be? the femoral pores seem to be fairly tight, like a female, but it is still young. It did live with a confirmed male of the same size with the previous owner without any fighting, they were lay on each others backs. I do not have another specimen to compare to regarding horn size, etc. I only have experience sexing C. similis.

I'm not too worried about taming, that takes time, patience, hand feeding, etc etc etc.

I do have a few dietary questions. It obviously has not had time to settle in yet, so I dont expect it to eat today or anytime soon. However, I was hoping someone could tell me what the rhino's favorite treat foods may be and what you feel a solid diet should consist of.

I generally feed my igs:
-romaine lettuce
-yellow squash
-zuccini
-broccoli
-red grapes
-carrots
-sometimes apples and bananas


should I be going to mustard greens, kale, etc?
