[attachment=3340]So the ifamous tegu is here, they shipped it one day sooner.  On first glace it look healthy, but on the thin side.  It has all its toes and full tail. No major scars or missing scales.

It in no way resembles a colombian tegu.  Its head is more pointy like my extreme when compared to the usual argentinian BW.  It definitely has yellow scales rather then white, which become more yellow toward the back half of the body.  The color does not wash off.  Perhaps it is due to diet, or just a different shade by chance.  Only time will tell if it fades or becomes more pronounced.  It let me hold it after a warm soak without a fight, and he ate some food readily. So its ok so far.

One thing is for sure, it is not a cross between a colombian and an argentine.
