Im not 100% sure but I think its around $140 or in that area, I saw a bunch at the last show here in Calgary. I would love to get one but they're just too big for me right now.

How big of an enclosure do they need? Can they be kept in a fasion very similar to a monitor? Well probably because they are so closely related but anyways. Thanks.

Argentine have two, Columbian have one. A little research also indicates that there should be a skin difference. Does your tegu have beaded skin or smooth skin?

Cheers,
Dave

He was also in terrible condition when i got him, but i didnt realize because i didnt know to much about how to pick out a healthy one. The guy i gave it to said he had soft jaw and he was always to crazy to pick up and check out so i didnt see this until i tried to trade him for a sav. I ended up buying the sav and got a lil of the price chopped and gave the tegu away because i didnt want to keep it..
