Very cool. Do the dots on her back remain for life?

They may or may not fade. I've seen some plumed basilisks without any spots at all in their adult life, and some with many.

Beautiful. Do you have her in a bioactive viv?

I have all of my animals in bio-active enclosures.

That's why I asked because I want a picture of the viv!

I had a pair of browns, but the greens are my favorites. Are you going to get a male?

Jesus Christ lizards are pretty awesome.

I agree; they're amazing how they can scoot along on the water's surface!

Lovely little lass. Will she too develop a "plume" or is that strictly a 'male' thing? (Seem to recall only males doing so but ...)

That's a male thing.
