 New Tegu

Here is my new Black and White Tegu i picked up from a pet store today.. I took these pics before he was in his cage. He is extremely calm and hasn’t even opened his mouth yet.. He is a very awesome tegu. How much is a good price for a Argentine Black and White Tegu? Thanks

A good price will be $100-150. I always wanted one just don’t have the room for one. Nice tegu.

hey man, 100-150 is the norm for a b/w.

That ones got some nice markings, are you sure its a b/w? To me it looks like a baby columbian, with the color and the head, but i may just be my monitor >.<

What a little cutie! It looks like a columbian to me to...Argentines have distinctive yellow spots in a clear stripe down both sides of the back..even that small they have it.

Great deal! I paid $150 last week for my arg.



Thats Elliott, my arg. He’s about the same size as yours.

Handle yours alot...it’s young enough to be taught to be nice with humans! I have always heard certain specie are nice and certain ones are not...there is always an exception to everything!

Hey man, just as a side note, usually the cheaper the herp the worse it was cared for, its not always the case, but most of the time it is. So just keep that in mind and keep an eye out for strange behavior and health problems

Good luck

Seeing that you picked it up from a pet store and for that price I think you got a great deal lol. Normall poet shops tend to be a bit over priced compared to breeders. Maybe they just didnt want to keep it around anymore cuz they grow way too fast and eat like a beast. Nice tegu by the way. Very pretty and for you to be able to told like that and take pics....lucky guy.....
But you cant always put a price on a good pet....

You can always find occasional great deals on tegus. I got my Argentine tegu for $75. That’s right $75. Your Colombian looks great by the way.
