I have been researching red tegus and love them. The only problem is that I have read great things about them and then not so great things. I definitly do not want to deal with the aggresiveness. I do not mind them being pissy until they get used to me. I understand that. What I do not want is a 4 foot giant trying to rip my fingers off. I do not want to try to handle them and they try to bite. Reading the good stuff encourages me, but reading the negative stuff really discourages me. I tend to be drawn to the tegus and monitors. So chameleons are out of the question, lol. PLEASE HELP...
