Here's a quick video of Aesop and Francis during their free-roam time today. Aesop is the first minute+ of the video, Francis is in the middle, and Aesop closes out our show (hardy-har!). That's a regulation size milk jug...hah. It's not exactly an exciting video, or well-shot, or incredibly indicative of their sizes (they move a LOT, especially Francis--she's training for Team Argentina for 2012).

Here is my 2010 giant from Sarge x Cream.
Got him at the end of 12/2010, hibernated from the time I got him to mid February. Now 24 inches long.
Lives in an outdoor enclosure with my blue tongue skink. They get along well. Supposed to be a male.

Hey slideaboot, aesop looks like a female. How long is aesop?

Aesop's just a few inches shy of 4 feet. I'm not sure on his/her sex anymore...if I think about it and get some time, I think I'll post some pics and see what you guys think. I'm really hoping male...

Appears to be female. I have a male giant just over 3 feet. The jowls are very pronounced on my male already and I would think your 4 foot tegu would have a similar appearance if not more so. Your tegu is beautiful. Is it one of Bobby's.

That's a rational hypothesis...

But, I'm not entirely sold yet. I know of plenty of fat kids without any features that indicate sexual maturity, ya know? Aesop grew up so fast that I'm not entirely sure that his (?) sexual maturity would have matched, development-wise.


Check this thread out...it's got some updated pictures of Aesop (headshots).
