What is a good place to buy my first tegu online. Im looking for either a black and white or a red. Ive checked kingsnake.com and Faunaclassifieds but i cant find any nice ones. Also what time of year do tegus produce offspring? I would like to get a baby.

Teguterra is a decent place. Varnyard-herps usually is too but been sketchy lately. Underground reptiles has reds as well. Tegus hatch out from about end of june- end of july for black and whites and end of july-september for reds

There is a fella on kingsnake that is catching and selling florida caught tegus . My friend bought one from him and the lizard was actually tamed down complete in a month . I will get the name for you if you want it.

I got my B&W from teguterra and johnny was very helpful and nice.
He was very careful to ship him on a day where it was good and warmer weather as not to hurt him. And Gummy seems very healthy and active and he's been very easy to tame.

He didn't handle his bad season very well though. Me personally kinda sketchy now knowing if he has a bad season what might happen. Not gonna lie though he is an amazing breeder. And I thank him very much fr vanilla :)

I don't know what is going on with Bobby. I still highly recommend his tegus. I've had two and they are beautiful.

Watch out for those selling FL wild caught tegus. Some are selling them in misrepresented ads, ie the Argentine is really a Colombian, etc and sold as a B/W. I don't know anything about Outback though.

Is it legal for them to sell the WC Florida tegus? I'm pretty sure the Burmese pythons that are caught have to be euthanized, but what about the tegus?

No I have seen people selling the pythons caught there as well. But, to only outside of Fla addresses though.
