Hybrid of what??

B&W and reds out to be approximately 3 ft by that age, but sex, nutrition, genes, birth size, play roles.

Pretty certain that's not a hybrid (why is everyone so eager to have a hybrid?!?!?), that's a Tupinambis teguixin.

I've had some fairly big ones in my time, they just don't get as robust as the Salvator sp. Maximum size 3, maybe 4 feet long including tail.
