Ok, with rising cost of sexed Blue Tegus and the fact I seem to have a Blue female and a 75%powder blue X red male I'm thinking of breeding these two together when the time comes. I'm willing to bet the babies would be absolutely stunning, and I don't bet on anything. I've got to get more pix of them, especially the cross. Maybe I need a filter of some sort to catch that light blue but he's a looker for sure.
So, the question is:
I was wondering what the interest might be in an 87% Blue, especially if the powder blue color carried over. I have no idea why but the guy that had the hybrids several of us here got had a hard time moving them.(I heard he even sold the female! Duh! What a dummy! Just get another blue female!!) Every one I have seen looks awesome! To look at mine in person you'd never know it was a hybrid even. I actually sort of dig the idea that this will help outbreed the Blues to give the bloodline a little boost in the gene pool since the originals brought in were supposedly all siblings. I mean I'm all about keeping your tegu types pure BUT they're what I have and this needed doing anyway.
I'll not be crossing my extreme female by any means but I would breed the extreme male to a hybrid for sure if I could.
Anyone... Anyone? Bueller.... :jes
