Hi i am new to this forum and i was wondering which type of tegus do u guys think is the least aggressive? I know all about the gold,red and black and white(both columbian and argentina) so out of those which is nicest since those are the ones i know of.

This question has been asked many times over the past few weeks, so if you scroll down, you'll find a post just like it.

But it seems people people agree: Anything but Columbians. Columbians are certainly capable of being tamed, but you wanted to know which is the least aggressive, and columbians are far from it.

i have a red tegu that is very tame and does not try to run away from me when i hold her. I also used to have aa columbian b&w. It was always trying to get away from me and bit my mom but usually didnt bit it just hissed and ran away alot. so i would say red tegus can be tamed easily.
