some quetions about blue tegus.

[Ogre]

so I am looking in to getting a blue tegu in the future, not soon by any means, but still I would like to know more about them before hand. I was wondering at the moment about size and coloration. I know that they are suposedly the smaller of the tegus but I have yet to get the actual size anywhere. Next is the color, it doesnt seem as extreem as the reds and I was wondering if they darken to a mor black as they get older or is it just my pc? any ways thanks in advance for any info.

In the simplest comparison think of a blue as a high white argentine b/w. some develop more blue tinting than others but I've never heard of a blue getting darker as they age

The blue color does not show up well on most cameras. My blue looks teal in the noon sun and a bit darker in the evening sun light. The color is more of a tint and less of a pigment. Most blues are high white then blue.

As for size females are around 3 to 4 feet and males can get 3 to 5 feet long.

My 3 blues are all different one is high white with a fiew peach spots, one is like a mocha colour on her back. But high white on her side's, my other is an awesome shade of blue especially after a shed, size wise, my females are around 3.5 ft & my male is 1 inch over 4 ft, 2 are 2 years old & 1 is 1 year old. Temperament is about the same as b&ws too.
