Hello
I have a 1.2 trio of Flavirufus, 4 years old and they are around 3', thick as mud!

gouldii and argus are similar sized lizards. females average between 3 and 4 feet and 3-4LBs. males will get 4 to 5 feet and around 8-15LBs. of course that is just a general average. my local pet shop had a 5.5ft 37LB argus. that's way bigger than average. flavi's are the smallest in the gouldii complex.

i could care less about crosses. in my opinion they're worthless muts. if you plan on breeding i would encourage you to stick with pure blood.

cheers
