I guess what I mean is, is it a real thing or not. All tegu species have some bigger and some smaller. I remember it all started when bobby hill said they were a different thing etc. and since then he has lost credibility a couple years ago. However, a lot of stuff he said about husbandry with no scientific backing whatsoever are continually being parroted on forums. When questioned on tegu forums, people don't reply, probably trying to avoid controversy.

However, other breeders are now saying this chacoan giant thing too. I am just wondering if it is actually a real thing or just something he made up to make a quick buck. I have recently seen some tegus for sale and it does seem the ones labelled chacoan giants have slightly more whites on their heads. If it is a real thing I'm thinking of acquiring one.
