Got a few updated pics on my big boy, he has been growing a bit slower since he dosnt eat everyday but he is still geting huge especially with only being 18mos old and hibernating his first year, I'm just guestimating but I think he is around 4' and about 10-15lbs, the camera washed out a lot of his white, but you can still kinda see it in some of the pics

Nice, he's getting huge!! Boon is about that long but he hasn't started to put on his adult bulkiness yet.

YES!!! Now that's what I'm talking about! He is a beast for sure. Great looking tegu reptastic! I really hope that Brahm follows in his footsteps! :-D On a side note, I can say I feel ya on the him not liking the rodent thing. Brahm has nothing to do with the darn things. I pitch them into the dish after they're thawed out and he refuses to eat them. Has eaten maybe 4 of them the entire time I've had him.

Hmmmm... maybe it's a Blizard x Sugar thing! :)

Lol idk what it is, i find it funny when he acts dumbfounded and will sit there looking at it with a "what is it?" look or when he slowly wave it in the air, i told him its food not a white surrender flag lol, i know jefrokas giant is a year older than storm and he dont eat rodents well either, its perplexing that he is bulking up off chicken parts and ground turkey, now rayne will devour any rodent that crosses her path with no hesitation

WOW! That is a big, gorgeous tegu! I really want an extreme, but there is no room at the inn, haha

I can't imagine my tegus walking away from rodents. Only at hibernation time....

Yeah, that's really fortunate for you. I want a male just for size potential, though either way, I'm sure I'd be happy, as I like the females slender faces.

Right now I'm afraid to put a deposit down for Varnyard, not because of anything against him, but all animals on 'backorder', I'd be afraid to get one reserved.
