I'm glad I found this thread just now because I came across a video of a B&W Argentine Tegu gobbling down a rat while looking for beardie videos on YouTube. I've become very captured and fascinated with them. My beardie currently lives in a 4 1/2 x 2 x 2 foot custom tank; would that be sufficient space for a young one? That is to say, I either relocate my beardie or wait until he passes away. I would probably be more ready and further educated by that point, hahah (he's five).

I heard tegus, no matter the size, need DOUBLE their length in enclosure space. I would need to build a hefty cover for the tank, I imagine. I have no doubt tegus are extremely strong and could push their way out of almost anything. Anyway, no more questions. I shall look at that website link that was provided earlier. Thank you!
