How old is your brother ? I had a lot of different lizards before and I honestly have to say that the Tegus are by far our ( my boyfriend and I ) favorite lizard. We still have a Brearded Dragon, Frilled Dragon and a leopard gecko besides the six Tegus we have. I like them but you can't cuddle up with them as well as you can with the Tegus. The Argentine black/white, red and the extreme giant Tegus do get very big. If you want to you could get a Argentine blue Tegu. They don't get as big. But they cost a lot more because they are more rare. Here are some videos of my son and I with one of our Argentine b/w Tegu. So you can see how tame they can be if you handle them a lot. We had all of our Tegus from when they were hatchlings.
