[techhousejunkie]

Hi everyone,

Im new to tegus and im getting my first this sunday im wondering if there is information you can help me with. Like my setup i have a 30 gallon now but what light, substrate, heating pad do you recommend??
Also when picking him/her are there any red flags as far as the animal not being in proper condition?

Any feedback would be great. Than You all

Thank you but as far as picking the animal are there any red flags that tell that the animal is not in proper condition?

If you are wanting an argentine make sure thats what you get, I didn't with my first, and was sold an argentine. Make sure the one you get it thick and healthy and alert.

i have talked to a couple breeders of tegus and i have found that many pet stores who have tegus have just bought them from a big breeder. But as for a high quality tegu, great color, healthy, and nice and big, as well as the breeder having high ethics in the breeding and care of these guys i would go with Varnyard. His site is <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.varnyard-herps.com/">http://www.varnyard-herps.com/</a><!-- m --> and he is an A++++++++ guy I'm buying my next 'Gu from him. as soon as i get the money that is :wink: good luck and welcome to the tegutalk family!! :lol: :lol: 8) 8) :lol: :lol:
