I know this question has been asked millons of times, and I am sorry. I would just like some help identifying her. I paid for an Argentine. I think it's an Argentine, but I want your opinions.


I know the some differences between them, scales, temperment, etc..

Well, she has the scales on her snout like an Argentine, but doesn't have alot of white on her back like I see on other owners pictures. Here are some pictures. Maybe you can help me.

I realize he was shedding in this picture, his set up wasn't the greatest heat/UVB/humidity wise. Now I have all of those and my numbers are spot on. :)

Thank you, I figured it was, but I was unsure because of her temperment. I am trying hard to tame her, but all day today when I went into the room, she would go into her hide. She doesn't like me :(

She could be being difficult due to the tank. If you reach from above, (like a bird catches it's prey) they get scared. Since the "one-on-one time" starts stressfully, it ends up taking more time to get back to your previous progress point. Hope it helps. peace 8)
