    The different kinds of tegus are quite.. well, different. lol

    Blue tegus are the smallest 3' or therabouts if I remember correctly. They are the only species which does not require fruit in the diet. They make nice pets temperament-wise typically.

    argentine black and white tegus reach 4' and 20lbs. Also good temperaments usually, but they require some fruit in the diet along with meat.

    argentine red tegus are slightly bigger than argentine B&Ws and they require the most fruit of all the species.

    Colombian and gold tegus make poor pets usually.. aggressive.

    Any tegu is going to need a lot of room.. certainly not a tank for an adult.

    Hopefully...I just have to remember to bring my camera ;) I have been out in the swamp once already....a few snakes. No gators yet though....but I usually don't see those til' I hit the marsh.
