This may seem like a dumb question, but why are Colombians so much cheaper than Argentines and Reds? I see The reds and argentines go for 300 euro plus, and I see that the Colombians go for as little as 80 euro! I'm currently in Germany and heavily looking into purchasing and properly caring for a Tegu! I know that Colombians have a stigma about their attitudes, but that cannot be the full reason for the dramatic down pricing, can it? I know as well that supply and demand can be a thing, but that is a huge price drop! Along with that, there are not many places in Germany that breed or have Tegus in general (atleast not locally to me), and I have a friend who knows a good breeder in the states who is willing to ship. However, over seas shipping seems kind of scary? I know some websites and breeders do trust it with express shipping, but would that take too long and harm the animal? I've never had such a hard to acquire animal, so I am really making sure to touch all my bases here! Thanks again for all the help! Sorry if I seem naive or clueless, I kind of am, but I really am not trying to go into this with little knowledge of the investment I am about to make.
