I've seen someone post something online about how bobby varnyard bred "black nose tegus" a couple of years back. Was he the only one to do so?

Bobby use too but I haven't seen them on his site for quite some time. I haven't seen anyone else who specifically breeds black noses/heads. It's usually a Black nose/head with a typical B&W.

I know Wil has at least one (might have a clutch later this year) but I don't know if that's a specific trait he's breeding for or not.

I have a really nice looking Black nose female. I got her from a local store in my area and not from the breeder Bobby.. I am unsure thou what breeder it was

I got a regular arg. tegu from Bobby, but he looks a lot like a black nose male :p

Speaking of which, do black noses ever get rid of the brown color on their backs? Taco is over 2 years old now and, aside from the brown/dark coloration on his head, he still has juvenile-looking color patterns.

I have two with dark noses. I may try to breed them this year and see what happens, not sure yet.

I thought about you when I was driving through South Carolina last week, Wil. My husband wants to build an outside tegu enclosure. I'll have to pm you one day.

Laura,
What part of SC did you drive through? You are always welcome to call me. I have some new ideas on building some outdoor pens that I might try this year.

We drove through hwy26 on the way to TN. We went through Columbia and such. You'll have to start a new thread on your outdoor enclosures.
