Default Help identify this, err, uhh, tomato

I was out picking some of the last of the tomatoes and found this. Not sure if this is an accidental cross or possibly a sport. But this one is going to take the tomato world by storm. The likes of which have never been seen. I'm thinking of calling it "Molting Lizard" what do you all think?

I haven't seen one of those since I was a little kid-about 60 years ago!

Hey. I'll take one of those. And send along some box turtle seeds as well, if you have any of those on hand.

Looks to me like a Prairie Lizard, sometimes locally known as Fence Lizards. Good name for a new tomato!

PM me your Addy, I'll throw in some pill bug seeds as well. Maybe some stink bug seeds too.
