do you think this lizard has lost it's tail and it grew back?

My guess is this little fellow is still on his first tail. The blue tail attracts predators so they attack the tail not the body. The tail breaks off and they survive another day, growing a new tail in a few months. The new one may be shorter and the color not as bright.
