Do males have an aggressive season?

No, I have kept males together without any problems, however you need to keep an eye on them whenever you introduce a new animal.
No, males are pretty laid back, even during the breeding season.
Females do become gravid with follicles, however they are unlike other species that will lay eggs without a male. Females will absorb the follicles, if not kept with a male, I have never seen a tegu lay without being with a male. I have also never seen or heard of an egg bound tegu.
