Hey guys and gals! I've been lurking on the tegu forums for quite some time now. I have read tons of material regarding Argentine tegus as well as Cyclura iguanas and feel that I'm ready to own one. I've owned various reptiles throughout the years and would love to own either of these two walking dinosaurs!

Now, I wouldn't mind having a B&W Tegu that I can devote a lot of time to tame and feed appropriate foods to. At the same time, a Rhino, Caymen cross or Cuban rock iguana sounds tempting too, simply for their ability to become docile as well. Enclosure size is not an issue for me. Bigger is better and I have the space for it. I read all the pros and cons about each except for one...POOP!

Can anyone who owns both species tell me which one smells worse? I assume they both poop the same amount since both get quite large. My wife doesn't mind me getting either one but was simply wondering which one smells less. lol.
