I would say that is a candycane taking into consideration that it is in shed.

I'm pretty sure that's candycane, amelanistic is just a lack of black whereas I think candycane is lack of yellow and black so slightly different from an amel.

I would say candy-cane as well. The colors are not "crisp" enough for me to call it a reverse oketee (if that makes any sense to you lol)

Either way, good find! I worked at a shelter and we got all kinds of herps, but I only took one home with me. Some were illegal to own in this state so they were relocated to other states, some were released in the wild, and two were adopted (one by me, on by co-worker). However with college and a full time job and a small fire which freaked mom out, I couldnt keep the iguana more than a year :(
