Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hey man,

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I haven't had a chance to read the forums this past couple of days, again sorry!

First off, I am by NO MEANS an expert on either species, far from it; but here is what I know.

Okay here's the deal. I'm gunna be 18 in a month and when I wanted the dums, I was about 14.5. The reason I Choose not to get it was at the time they just required too much space that I didn't have and I really couldn't interact with the lizard as much as I wanted to considering their personalities.

After reading that Tegu's could be house broken and how tame and smart they were, I just HAD to have one, and so I made the choice to get the Tegu, also they don't require as much space as a dums from what I've read, considering they can be allowed to roam free most of the time, while you're around.

Sorry, I know that doesn't help much, but it's the truth

Ya, I am almost 17. A tegu is looking more and more like what I want in a lizard. They are really cool. I wish there where some people up in Nor cal that I could see their adults. I am looking at the Blk and Whites. They are really stunning. Great pic by the way.
