These two will be together for this year. I think the male compliments the female very nicely and would expect the offspring to be rather nice. Hopefully all goes well and I get some eggs, I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Sorry for the crappy pictures, it has been raining on and off. I will be getting better pics of the tegus as the days get even longer and they start shedding out.

I hope that I have a handful of females go this year between B&Ws, Reds, and Blues. Time will tell, but then again getting eggs is just part of the battle.

Does temperature influence gender during development in tegus? anyone, anyone?

Nice avatar, btw

Laura, I never read or seen where Bert explored TDSD. Although he very well could have, it's a shame that he's not around to just email. It would be interesting to find out though as tegus seem to parallel Crocodilians in so many ways.

It would be interesting.

I found this article:

From my understanding, I think all reptiles do..... Don't trust me though! Breeding is NOT my Forte

No, not all reptiles, and there are two types of TSD.
