I've always believed gigas.

It's a difficult though.... as they do seem to have scincoides type pattern banding... :?

What do you say Edward? What does James think?

Haha! Probably, danny! :wink:



I think the Irian Jaya is just a hybrid of some kind, there are SO many different colors and varieties, and over so many years, I think it's just blended into what it is. They're great tempered, and wonderful coloring, so I'm not worried about it. 8)
