    Tegus for Sale

    Sorry all, a local science teacher has requested them. He will be picking them up. Thanks for the interest, but as a teacher myself he gets the nod. Every once in awhile I rescue tegus and when I do again I will have them available on this site. Thanks again.

    Tegus for Sale

    I'd like to get rid of them ASAP because I'm already caring for my own and I go away a lot, which makes caring for them difficult. The black and white is very tame, can be handled, but would rather run around on his own. The red used to let you handle it sometimes, but since he has been...

    Green Tint

    I am trying to get answers and I respect what everyone has brought up. From Bobby's post in combination with what I've been told by others maybe it has something to do with the lack of care it got as a hatchling. I'll get pics of him up soon. Thanks all for feedback

    Green Tint

    Well, I think it is based on first hiberation, age, and condition of Tegu when I got it. He was green when I got him in the mail and very skinny. He immediately went into hiberation even though I tried to keep him up because he was so skinny. He finally woke up and shed a few times. He now...

    Green Tint

    Discussed situation with one of my herp professors. He said the color has nothing to do with the health of the lizard and that some black and whites just have different tints to them. Just in case he examined by Tegu (Freud) and said he is in excellent health

    Have you been bitten?

    Repeated tongue flicking seems to be one of the common denominator so far. Also, if your Tegu is hungry please feed it before you attempt to handle it, LOL. Speaking of Vets, it is crazy how Savannahs are so popular, but Tegus aren't, although I think, and hope that is starting to change...
