that second pic is soooooo cute!!!!! it makes me just want to hug an kiss him!

I had a Tegu many years ago. I never felt bad about having Tegu cowboy boots after that. If you kissed the one I had, you would never look the same again!

In fact, it would be great for me to see a NICE one! I hear they are available, and I'm guessing that's what we're looking at here!

I have about a dozen of them. all it takes is time and patience for them to be handleable. I got a pair from a guy that could not be handled even by him. After 6 months of human contact they were almost tame. I would not trust them unsupervised because I have not put in enough time with them. As with any "wild" animal, it depends on the effort you put in as to what you get back.

Heres Fred again at a local school

I'm guessin you probably had a columbian black and white tegu. I had an argentine, very mean when i got it, within 2 days, it was just like a cat, they make great pets if u have some time on your hands and want a lizard that gets around 3-4 feet.

Love the pic Bennett. I was wondering if you paid for your watermark or you just did it in Photoshop.
Thanks,
Randy

It's all my work so I paid for it with time and frustration. took a long time to get the logo designed, went through a lot of different possabilities. Before getting into the reptile business I was a graphics designer. Still do a little now and then.
