Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I got these from my brother. All I know is that he got them from a reptile show in Pomona, CA about 5 or 6 years ago. They were babies then and he has just kept them as pets. He gave them to me and I can't really tell, I don't know much about localities.

This is the female. She is about 32 inches long.

This is the male. He is about 25 or 26 inches long.

Please respond if you can offer any thoughts or suggestions.
Thanks

I don't know, but that's never stopped me from replying before..

I had a few offspring given to me that were Mexican (mainland Mexico) crossed with what I think was a Calif desert rosy of some sort. The babies grew into something similar to what you have. Very attractive and had fantastic appetites, but not a real treasure for most rosy enthusiasts. I liked them though.

I did see a pickled roadkill specimen at the Univ of LaPaz in Mexico that looked like a cross between a trivirgata and a myriolepis, kind of like yours look but with a much straighter and more narrow top stripe. But pickling can alter colors, so who knows.

I had a feeling they might be hybrids, especially the male. He just didn't look like any of the locality photos I had seen. Thanks for the reply

Those are probably triv x cali desert. I bred those 20 years ago.
