DNA testing would not prove much unless you typed the breed (this cause speices the blue tegu). It is very expensive to do the testing that is needed. Because blue and black and whites could have a very simliar DNA profile, typing them would be timly and costly. They have a hard enough time with dogs, let alone reptiles.

They have seen "blue" tegus in the wild. Most famous would be a tegu with a blue hue and black rub eatting a rattle snake.
