My hybrid from Laurafl!

[SnakeCharmr728]

Recieved my hybrid from Laurafl today, we love her. She was pretty nervous when we first took her out of the box so we just put her straight into her enclosure... and watched her explore for over an hour... I thought for sure that she'd just go bury herself and hide but nope, she explored everything a million times over and then parked herself on top of her cinder block and is basking, with both of us laying there watching her she had no fear... we'll offer her food in an hour or so after she warms up... shes SO pretty!!!!
Here's some pics

Her temporary setup until her wood 4x2 gets here on sunday...

Love the way BW x Red hybrids turn out as adults. Congrats!

Looking at the 4th photo, does the tegu have a small fold of skin on it's side, or does its pattern break sharply in that area. Either way, I think it looks cool.

 

[SnakeCharmr728]

Thats a fold of skin...

Shes such a PIGGY! omg, shes scarfed herself, afterwards she was so fat, looked like she'd pop!

Haha! Cute! I need to put some pics up of Sigourney - my Tegu from Laura as well.

Thx guys! I don't feed them on shipping day, so they look a bit thin the next day. Then they eat and look like little balloons.

I'm excited about these little ones. I've seen a lot of hybrids that look "chocolate", and I think it comes from reds that are really red. My red has a lot of white contrast, the b/w has a lot of yellow and orange. So these gus come out with more contrast than chocolate. But of course, we'll have to see how it all pans out as they mature.

I have one...my favorite...that seems to have a really light head

 

[SnakeCharmr728]

heres another, it truly amazes me how beautiful her colors are!

 

[HeatherN]

beautiful! love those reds

 

[agv0008]

I think she gets progressively fatter in each picture. That's awesome, cool tegu.

 

[laurarfl]

haha, she does. When they eat, you can she them get fatter. Then the next day they look starved.

 

[jamesnyborg]

Wow I'm jealous. So beautiful!

 

[Grendel]

Very nice hatchlings, I think those color contrasts forecast some very nice adult tegu colors.

 

[UglyKid2]

Wow, very pretty tegu. I'll bet she's grown since these pics were taken!

 

[Logie_Bear]

Aw, she's so pretty! I love the red speckling along her sides. Can't wait to see the hybrids develop as they age.

Laura, do you have pics of mum and dad?

 

[SnakeCharmr728]

Yes John, shes really grown!

Heres some updated pics:

beautiful tegu, i love the colors on its back.

 

[Skeetzy]

Wow! He's so much bigger than mine that I just got from Laura. Yours is definitely a fast grower. Colors are superb.

 

[laurarfl]

Skeetzy, yours was a little guy.
