    How big are the parents (weight & length)?? They look young.

    Our 4 year old Blue Tegu's have copulated and the female spends all day working on her nest. Incubator is built and ready to go. Our female is about 2000g & 3 ft long. I'm wondering how big your female is because I think my female might be about the same weight as yours and you got 27 eggs, so I'm hoping for the same.

    We're very anxious to see if she lays and how many, and of course how many hatch. There are very few clutches of Blue Tegu's born each year.

    The mom weighed about 4lbs. I love them. Be aware that the dad may eat the eggs when they are laid, and if you don't know yet, the mom may become vicious once she has clutched.
    I love blues, and I'd love to see pics of your pair! I don't know how many eggs blue tegus lay in a clutch. I remember being told that reds only lay about a dozen, and B&Ws lay more like 25-30. But other people say other things, and I've even seen a website that claimed that B&Ws only lay 5-7 eggs in a clutch!
    Good luck!
