WE have 3 diferent species in CR, this is just one of them, the other is a full size, Basiliscus plumifrons.
Is this a baby Jonathan? I just saw you have another Jesus C lizard, that looks like a dragon, a green one.
Me too Peter! I got it after seeing this spotting days ago, I even told my friends about it haha. Thank you for sharing Jonathan!
