@Nikki1292 well all animals even humans arent ment for pets but demsticateting is possible thats why pepole dont like lizzards or snakes because they are misunderstood

[Nikki1292]

Yes, Colombian tegus can be more aggressive, BUT they can be very tame and good-tempered if you give them proper care, handle them daily so that they become used to you, and just take good care of them. hmmm, that's the same type of care you give Argentine tegus, isn't it? Shhh, just like pit-bulls, the Colombian tegus have a bad reputation when they can be very good pets.

[TheTegumaster]

i proved that columbian tegus can actualy be less agressive than argentine tegu so stop givin them a bad name theyre a great pet

[TheTegumaster]

@redluv777 apply small amount of neosporin and if she seems in pain take her to the vet immediatly but other wise shell be ok

Help! my Argentine Tegu escaped and i saw her sleeping in a curl under the couch. As i slowly went to capture her she woke and was startled so ran away then i lifted the couch and her tail got caught underneath....must of been a lot of pressure because she detached at least a whole foot of her tail and it was a clean... break:( she is not bleeding and seems to be normal but i am worried because 1. will it get infected now she has this open wound and 2. will her tail grow back?
