my first tegu

Antariel Sep 07, 2003 07:15 PM

Hey, i just got my very first baby Tegu today but i'm not sure what kind it is. He's got a very green head with some brown on his back with more green all over him, with the usual black markings.. I think he's Argentine but i really have no idea. Will he stay this green or change?

he'll change. if he's an argentine, the green will turn white or fade completely, and the rest of him will be black.

Congratulations on your new tegu! I just got my first one in June. Like yours, he was also a baby with a beautiful green head. By August the green was gone. I got my second tegu, a red, in August!
