Well that question is the one i cant get an answer to. I have searched this whole site and you wont find the correct answer. One will say jowls will start at a year old, The next will say at three years and the other will say in a matter of months. Also i read on here that buttons/spurs show up at 15 to 20 inchs then the next thread you will see it says around 3 feet but sometimes two feet. Back to the jowls and spurs some say it depends on if the animal hybernated on when these things appear. Also some say jowls are a sign of sexual maturity, i was told my tegu should be getting jowls if it were a male but my teg is only 4 maybe 5 months old so, so far i dont think anybody knows the correct answer. And i also feel that each animal will have its own time frame when to develope certain things. Just like in humans we all dont start puberty at the same time so my conclusion is we have to set and wait to see.
