As babies they are a little flighty, but as they age and if they are handled on a regualr basis, become calmer and more tolerant of humans.

I may be a bit biased towards the Argentines as I have never had a baby Argentine, only baby columbians. But I have dealt with both as adults and find the Argetines to my liking.

Now Gold Tegus are a different story. These are the poor man's tegu. You can pick them up at any show for like $20 each. Most are from farms and are not the best specimens. I have had them as both babies and adults and find them to be a lot less tolerant to handling and more likely to bite and whip you with their tail.

I haven't had the Red or Blue Tegus yet, but who knows what the future holds for my collection.
