Choosing the right Harness

[James Ledbetter]

I have seen a few different discussions, regarding the best harness to use. When I google Tegu harness, I get harnesses for bearded dragons. I have seen some conversation stating that ferret harnesses worked well, and then it was followed up by someone that stated theirs got out of a ferret harness because the plastic buckles didn't hold. I need some advice from the forum. My Black and White is 1 year old this month and is about 28" long.

I use one that has a bunch of beads that make it very secure. Two on the under body to secure around both sides of each front leg. Position it properly to the size of the body. The top several beads on the back behind the neck are what does a great job of securing it over a bearded dragon one I used before. My gu is about 10 months old and 29-30” so right about the same size as yours. Pics from Sunday

I really want to get one of those cool ones that look like full body harnesses for dogs I’ve seen some youtubers with. With metal buckles and adjustable. I’m going to look into a ferret harness for sure one mine gets thicker

Maybe the smallest size would work on a younger/smaller tegu?
