Very nice. How much do the albinos usually run for?

I have seen them from $500 and up. I traded a dozen german BD babies for my trio.

How did you get them so big so fast. Mine is 3 months old, she is a female and she id currently eating 1/2 fuzzy mice and is going through a shed so she might grow pretty soon. What did you feed to get so big ? She was on crickets and worms for alitte while but then i switched her to pinky mice for about 100 of them. Now she is feeding on the 1/2 fuzzy. Just wondering if i should be doing something different.

Nice pics!! Good luck with the breeding. Let us know when you are a new daddy!

I am not going to push them like some breeders do. I will probably wait until their second season before breeding them. I hope to have my hands full with my reds next season. I am hoping for another good year.

Here's one of my reds with my daughter

Super nice "red"!! What are your favorites out of the tegus?! Everyone seems to have a different opinion. I'm looking at getting one but not sure just a plain black and white or a blue. Decisions, decisions. See ya

Well I have had reds for a few years and I just love them. Once they get some size on them they seem to settle down and are not as jumpy as when they are young. This is my first time with blues and while they don't get as large, I can handle them in ways that I could never do with young reds. The blues seem more lay back at an earlier age. At least that is the case with mine. Fortunately I don’t have to choose between Blues and Reds or between Tegus and Dragons or between lizards and snakes or between reptiles and mammals.

Good luck
