I need help

So I have a leopard gecko and might want to get another lizard.
I like tegus and am wondering if that would be a good lizard choice.
I know columbians are not a good choice.

I don't know anything about tegus, but beardies are cool! They eat like pigs, but have great personalities and are very intelligent.

maybe a beardie

Tegus are sweet, but don't plan on all of them being nice and friendly :rofl: My sis picked up a red tegu and he's got an attitude like no other. They apparently need quite a bit of handling. Also remember that they get enormous! My friend has a black and white that has to be at least 3-4 feet long and very heavy. The reds can get to 20 pounds, so you have to be prepared for that and be able to house it! Care isn't very hard for either color though. They grow pretty fast too, since October he's already doubled in size, so if you don't have the room, a tegu isn't an option!

lol I have seen the attidue of tegus before

Uromastyx are pretty cool. BTS (Blue Tongue Skinks) make good pets, I hear. Remember to check whether the lizard that catches your interest requires UV lighting or not.

We ended up taking in a tegu rescue.He is real tame but still quite a handfull. ;)

ahhh hey grits ...what about the pics
