Extreemosaurus Blue Rhinos

Rhino2 Apr 04, 2010 10:05 AM

Can you post some pictures of the 3 other multihorned ? Last time I saw a female with the powder blue like yours, was many years ago on a website from Australia(down under), it also was a multihorn lacking tall spikes. I wonder what part of Hispanola this variance comes from ?

Regarding the Austrian breeder, his resources seem to be unlimited. I would be surprised if his lewisi are anything but pure.

To catch the blue on photo, get the iguana very warm, then mist with a water spray bottle right before taking the photo. The below 2 photos are the same iguana. In the photo without my son, the iguana was misted.

Hi
Thanks for the tips..
Yes i have heard a lot of good things about Juergens animals.. and here in EU all animals have Cites permits micro-chips Photo-ID and most have owner registration Origin info.. much harder laws here .. its illegal to sell one without Cites and chips... So if he say that they are PURE lewisi then they prob are! just wanted some second hand info..
About the blue rhinos i dont think they are from a locality.. i think they are some sporadic Morph.. its really hard to bring new blood to EU from the US because your animals dont have most the paperwork needed for the EU.. and fish&wildlife aint that helpfull .. So i think the rhinos in EU are from a very small Gen-pool and this is why they Morph..You have a larger Gen-pool and i would think that some sporadic smuggling to the US may not be unheard of..so your animals stay like the wild ones..
I will try to get pics on the baby rhinos.. but they are in a big cage and they are very scittish(females) the male attacks me LOL.. but he will become a MONSTER his head is almost as big as my 4-5 year old Blue female !

NICE RHINO YOU HAVE THERE =)

Now that I have seen more fotos, it all looks pretty normal. Nice looking iguanas, but nothing out of the ordinary realm of variances.
