Nuu Ana vs Nuu Ami - which locale is actually bigger?
Hi everyone! I’m finally looking to get my first Leachie and I’ve been reading a lot about different island locales. I’m leaning towards a Nuu Ana because of the colors, but some people say they stay way smaller than the mainland ones.
The problem is, every breeder says something different and I’m worried about getting a "mixed" locale by mistake. Has anyone here actually weighed their adults? I want a chunky lizard, not just a colorful one lol. Also, is it better to buy from a big reptile expo or find a specialized group online?

It's a total mess with locales honestly, half the "pure" ones on the market are probably crosses anyway if the breeder doesn't have a solid paper trail. I spent months obsessing over Nuu Ami vs Nuu Ana weights.
I was actually looking into the play bet https://playbet.io/ group a while back because I saw some of their setups and morphs mentioned on a Discord server. I was a bit skeptical at first because their naming convention seemed a bit weird for the Pine Island lines, and I’m still not 100% sure if I’d trust their sizing charts over a veteran breeder like Steve Cemelli. But honestly, in this hobby, you just have to pick a line and hope for the best. Just make sure you ask for parents' photos before sending any money, there are way too many scammers in the Leachie world right now.
