colour variation in tegus

[snakehandler]

i noticed a difference in the colour of the belly of my two tegus.
theyre both black and white but one has a white belly and the other yellow. it this a normal colour variation or a distinction between sexes?

Apollo is almost orange underneath. Not sure why it can vary. I'd post a picture but my camera's getting fixed. I'll try to take one with my PPC.

The color has nothing to do with the sex, some males have bright colored bellys as do some females.

I just contacted a herp vet and asked about this. He tells me it's a skin infection due to poor housing conditions and should be treated ASAP so as to avoid scale damage and ultimately death.





Kidding, very cool color, mine has a more yellow look.
