Just a post full of my questions about tegus, I plan on getting an Argentine Black and White Tegu eventually.

Can baby tegus be kept in an adult-sized enclosure?

Hmm, I think that's all for now. I promise I will have more, though..

I've got my 2 month old argentine red in a 8x4x3 enclosure right now. No complaints, haven't experienced any territory issues. He seems pretty comfortable with it and back when Buzz use to live inside I had him in the same enclosure. But now he's a big guy and he's moved outside.

So IMO, yea, baby tegus can be kept in an adult-sized enclosure. Others may disagree.

I agree with TeguBuzz, yes they can be started in their adult size enclosure.
