Before the interpretation posts, I enjoyed reading your breeding post Varnyard, I live in Argentina so I know many of the breeders here: "El gringo" (I bought mine here), "Saurios", "Las tres iguanas" (of Roberto Fracchia in Córdoba), etc. I like yours better tho, cause here they use them for food, creams and do wallets and boots with their skin, just a little amoung go for pet stores, specially the ones exported.
I only have something to add and its that in the wild not all the tegus made their own nest, in fact they are lazy for that so they use to get one already done from nature or other animals specially "vizcachas" (couldnt find the translation for this word, they are little bigger than hares). And I've seen them, looking for a "vizcacha" and finding a lay tegu in the cave! :P
I have a question too, I dont know anything about breeding and since I have just discovered that my 10 years old tegu is a female in fact I got a doubt. I've never seen an egg from her, and a friend of mine with a iguana gets up to 40 eggs every year without any male. So is this normal for my tegu and this only happens to iguanas or this means my tegu is egg-binding or something like that? Thanks in advance!
