Hi everyone i'm semi new to this forum but my love for tegus is un beatable they are just one of the most amazing lizards in the world followed closerly by savanah monitor but my problem is that B/W tegus are easy to come by in Scotland (UK) but i really want a pair of reds do you think its cruel to have them shipped to the uk for my collection or should i just go with B/W?

thanks alot all opinions wanted as this is a subject thats really getting to me as i know i wouldn't really like locked in a box for 12 hours+ i would be at the airport or docks for them arriving with my car and convertor so they are on heat asap and hey would be put in there cag and left for minimuim 48 hours after there kool down period i would feed them leave for another 24 hours they try handling

I see no problem, there were 5(i think) extreme giants shipped from the states to the uk with no problems other than its pretty expensive i heard, i know here in the states it takes 17-20 hours for a tegu to be shipped from florida to illinois(were i live)
