Here are some pictures of my Chacoan tegus. I went out today and shot some more pictures. They are in shed at this time and not as bright as they are normally.

Click on the pictures to make them larger.

This is one of my males Ice eating an egg.

This is a shot of Ice Chacoan male, He is the one on the left. Zeus, one of my largest male normal Black n Whites and Sleet a Chacoan female in the center. Note how much larger the Chacoan male is to the Black n White male. Also you can see that the Chacoan female is almost as big as the normal male.

This is a shot of Snow my other Chacoan male enjoying life in the sun.

Nice outdoor enclosures!
How do you keep them from digging or tunneling out under the fence
boards?

They will hatch in June or July, but I don't know if there will be any for sale then. I have a bunch of orders for them and I will want to keep a few as well.

But you are welcome to check with me then. icon_smile.gif
