I purchased this gorgeous pair in January, they were sold to me as Abronia taeniata. The thing is, I haven't found any taeniata that look like this! I've searched everywhere to try and find out what they are. :shrug01:

Pardon the photos, I had brought them to repticon to see if anyone could ID them, nobody could 🙁

Anyhow, they have been scarfing down a mixture of crickets, superworms, and small dubia. I'm not really wanting to part with them but I already have a nice group of graminea that I'm working with and need to make space for my gravid females. I'd prefer them to go with someone who has experience.

$800 plus shipping.

The one on the right is definitely a Taeniata. The male on the left looks like a Taeniata/ Graminea hybrid. I've seen them before. It is a naturally occurring hybrid where the two species ranges overlap.
 
I'd consider if someone has a group of 2.1 graminea to combine with the graminea I have now. Otherwise I think I am going to keep her, and try to find a similar colored male. The female is just over 2 according to the vendor who sold it to me, I don't know her actual age, but she is very strong and alert compared to my yearling graminea and gravid female.
