Are these Pygmy or Dwarf Beardies

[falconboy]

Hi all,

For those of you who keep either/or of these species, what do you think these young are from - Pygmy (henrylawsoni) or Dwarf (minor). The seller says minor but I'm not entirely convinced. The patterning doesn't look right to me and I find my dwarfs have longer tails than the pygmys.

have u seen a pic of there parents?

 

[falconboy]

Nope.

 

[urodacus_au]

Dont look like any minor ive ever seen but i havent seen them all....

 

[Miss B]

They look exactly like the hatchies my local pet store sells as Pygmies.

 

[falconboy]

Thats what I was thinking. Wonder how many henrylawsoni are around as other things. You'd be peeved if you shipped interstate without pics wouldn't you!!!

 

[OzGecko]

Definitely not minor. I'll try to get a couple of pics of mine to put up.

 

[MrSpike]

Falconboy those are definitely not Minor. If you look at the pics in this thread below and compare them to that photo you will see the difference. Some people get confused between Pygmy's and Dwarfs thinking they are the same.

Seems someone might get a bit of a suprise hey!

This is what he emailed me:

"they pogona minor minor, the dwarf ones, the bloke at the pet shop said that that black soil n dwarf beardies are the same. but i have pogona minor minor, are you interested in buying some??"

I think I might send him to this thread.
