Normal and giant differences

[VARNYARD]

Here is something else when I compared them, the head shape:

This is a giant, note the more pointed nose:

And a normal note the more round nose:

Giant note the croc like head:

Normal note the more round head and the shape of the eye:

I was going with the V, and it is found in most of the giants, about 85% of them, but all of them do not have it. But you can see from the pics above that they are very different.

Feel free to send one of those "ugly crocs" over to my house!!! I'll pay the shipping!!! :mrgreen:

LOL, wow thats incredible! i noticed that too but always thought it was a personal thing that jokers head looked like that, with the longer snout. cause joker is now almost groxy's size when i first got her. and his head looks way different. more angles, i love it!

How can you tell the difference between a normal B/W and the giants? I read where you mentioned the "V", but I wasn't sure what you were referring to. Could you please expand?

Man O man! Even with this help. I can't tell the difference between my normal and extrwme giant that arived last week. Other thn size, since the B/W is 2 weeks older and bigger. I should change my sign name to "Special Ed"

If your able to hold them together, close enough to examine their features, youll see the differences listed in the above links, then youll notice the specific traits of each, then youll know how to identify which is which.

Can you see the V? I can see the V in my little Extreme. But I don't see the "Croc" eyes.

Hmmmmm :doh don't you think i put them together already? I can read the info that was first posted...LOL

The reason I cant tell the difference is they are both Extremes to say, they both have the V under neath... one is a Surgar/blizzard and the other is from another pair... Stupid me...

omg, i just realized i will have to study this really hard so i dont confuse the new tegus lol, since both of my b/w nero and achilles had the "V" under their necks and they were both normals, hopefully rayne dont have a "V" and storm does so i dont get them mixed up lol!

 

[DMBizeau]

Giants have such unique patterns I don't really have a hard time telling a difference between normals. I had a really hard time telling which of my blues was which when I first got them though.

 

[reptastic]

do the babies have different patterns while still in green?

 

[Curtis T]

How big do adults get?

 

[Guest]

From what I`ve read they get about 20 % bigger five feet verses four twenty pounds verses 16.. Any tegu is excessive ... I would of liked a giant . but got a standard ..because of cost .I am more than satisfied with my standard ..

 

[TheTeguGurl]

Can anyone post a pic of a adult giant Vs a adult normal so i can see diff please

 

[reptastic]

These are pics of 2 male tegus also the fathers to each of my tegus

blizard at alost 2 y/o(giant)

roy age unknown(normal)

 

[Moofins]

Reptastic, would those two tegus have anything to do with Bobby's tegus? I know he has a couple named Blizzard and Roy as well.

EDIT: Neeeeevermind! I just read that part that says "father" to your tegus. Derp! ^^;;
