Single or couple?

[Davy C]

Hello.
There are several months that I learn about the Tegu.
Now I'm starting ...
I found a breeder in Germany. He told me that if would better that I take 2 because it feels moin alone. Explains that unlike other Tegu, blue needs to be in a group.
In after your experience can you tell me if this is true?
Because I would not want my pet to feel really alone?

Thank you for your reply and sorry for my English writing

Your English is fine, no need to apologize.
Tegus do not need to be in a group for company. In fact, sometimes tegus will not do well living together and will need to be separated into two enclosures.

Thank you for your answer

Completely not necessary, sounds like they're just trying to sell you another tegu.

Like Bubblz said, it sounds like the breeder is just trying to get some extra money out of you. If you choose to get one, it will most certainly do fine on its own.

Welcome to the forum!
