Here are some pictures...now if I can figure out how to get them posted, LOL!

This is Kreacher, my prize tegu (literally), from Varnyard in 2007.

Oh she is sexy!! :)

She has moma's front legs and belly, but looks more like dad on the top. You have done well with her Laura, she looks great.

Does she have a lot of greenish/yellowish tinge to her white? Kreacher still seems to have a yellowish glow.

Bobby, it is amazing you remember the sister.

Do you know off hand the parents of my Tegu? I've always been meaning to ask you.

just when i thought i had it all figured out another twist! well my argentine black and tegu i purchused late october was about 10-11 inches is growing like crazy, he/she is almost 2 feet already. after handling the tegu today noticed the whole underside of the tegu is turing orange/red, does not look like any fugas,or substrate coloring, has anyone seen this with thier tegus? do you think it could be a red blk/wht mix? all comments welcome!!!
Mr Tegu.....Check this out...This is my baby's tummy. He has had this color tummy since we got him last Sept. It has turned to this darker color over time. Is he a pure breed b&w? or could he be a mix?
