Meet the Parents

I got an email from Bobby Hill today telling my what the parents of my future tegu are!

Little Inara's mum and dad are *drum roll* Roy and Sky.

I've watched videos of Roy free roaming, so I've got a good idea of what he looks like. Anyone know what Sky looks like? Light or dark? or has anyone gotten offspring from them before?

I'm just getting antsy and trying to picture what she'll look like all cozy in her enclosure.

(and yes, I'm naming her Inara after the character in Firefly)

I could jump with excitement. In fact, I think I just might xD. I just bought a 55 gal tank off craigslist to start her off in! How long do you think that'll last her?

If the dimensions are 48x13x20, I would say until he/she is about 1' in length. If he hibernates, you may be good for a year.

Here's the add: http://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/for/2468253752.html
They didn't give dimensions, but that seems to be about right.

hum that cage you got six months or less. All depends on how long it hibernates, eating and all that. Some tegus hit the 3 foot or even 4 foot mark on their first birth day.
