i was wondering if someone who has a male tegu could post pics of them when they were younger im asking because i want to compare them with my tegu nero who i believe is a male he has some jowls i cant really tell if he has spurs i do see two scales that appear larger than the rest but im not 100% positive yet but his is longer and kinda narrower than most of the tegus ive seen on here that are close in age with him he is currently 31-32" and almost 4 mos.

It's kind off hard to tell at that age if it's a male or female.Can you feel any beads one on each side off the vent ? males also have a bit off a wider head than females do.

Here are some pictures of my male tegu at ~ 30" ..

Those are the best pictures I have of him where you can actually see his jowls at that age. Also an above view so you can see the width of his head. By the time he was that big I could feel the beads on the side of the vent. You should try looking, and see if you can find them.

hope it helps.

Mine is young, but looks all grown up. He's a little over a year, so I am not sure if his pictures would even help because of how grown he looks. His jowls are very prominent.
