I want a tegu
It's for my daughter. Our friend has a blue tegu, and we want one. Where is a good place to find one? Thanks.

Thanks Nicole. It doesn't look like he has any babies right now. I'll keep checking. That looks like a good website.

I bought all my tegus from Rick Sisco. Great person to deal with. Why a blue? Why not an argentine? Just curious. I have 1.1 blues, and they are extremely skiddish. Don't care for humans that much. I have 1.2 argentines and they love me to death. They come when called and always enjoy attention. Blues are just known to be more skiddish. Also Blues have also been known to be picky eaters. They'll choose a few food items, and thats all they will eat, which isnt a good thing. This is what I have noticed and what other people have noticed with them too.
Rick Sisco does have 1.1 Argentine Red Tegus available. They are really beautiful high red tegus. When spring hits, you'll have a wide range of tegus to choose from. If you check out thetegu.com they have classifieds of blues for sale. I DID notice a few ads with blues in them. Also when spring hits, Bobby Hill (varnyard herps) will have a wide range of tegus for sale, but no blues. Agamainternational has a few crosses left, not sure about blues or black and whites though.
I changed the water in my brumating female bin. They "decided" to wake up and get a drink.

Well our friend's is a blue. He's really docile, and supposedly an easy keeper. I guess that's the only reason behind our choice. Yours are gorgeous though. I guess I should do some more research. Thanks very much for the info.

Joe, I've been researching for a little while now. My husband wants a monitor and I'm really kind of trying to steer him to the Argentine tegu. I think they are the size he is looking for with more of a temperment fit for me.
Good luck on your research and share if you find anything interesting. He's really been mentioning this a lot and I have a feeling he's thinking more along the lines of the not to distant future.
