It depands on the type tegu you get some get bigger than others. I would say for it should be ok until they are about a year old or 30" long. After that you need to either give it some room to move around every day or get a bigger cage. I have not found a difference in personality male vs female.

It does say on the ron st. pierre web sight that female b/w tegus can become temporarily aggressive during the breeding season.
