Tonka & A Lesson Learned

[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Collared Lizard Forum ]

Posted by eve on May 01, 2003 at 10:41:58:

This is Tonka, I purchased Tonka pretty young as a Female from someone who I thought was quite experienced in collareds, I never DOUBTED the sex, and NEVER double checked. This year Tonka has been growing alot and getting quite big and bulky and exhibiting MALE behavior, pelvic dragging, alot of head bobing and jumpng on both the male that at the time(she) was housed with and also jumping on the females neck biting. Well point is in checking, I now have another Male, So ALWAYS double check yourself, when you receive a collared to make sure you know what you have. I don't care that Tonka turned out to be male because He is very pretty, yellow and blue front legs and turquoise blue coming on back legs and very faint orange banding, can't tell in pic, but HE's quite cool !!!! :0) Eve
