You can now have a tegu friend to hang out with and keep you company at a great price.
These tegus are in great health, they are just cosmetically challenged ( regen. Tail ).
When I capture a tegu like this one, I cannot return it into the wild.
I will not sell these tegus at regular prices. I call him/her a scratch and dent and offer at a great price to anyone interested in helping the tegu, my operation, and the native Florida species
Why wait? they are available now in various sizes. This sale will continue until the supply runs out.
Lack of full tail does not have an impact on temperament, feeding or anything else that would change their behavior. This a common occurrence in most lizard species, captive bred and wild captured.
If these guys could speak they would probably say something like:
"hey, we’re lizards, it grows back !"
Your purchase rescues Florida tegus from a major euthanasia and eradication plan currently in progress by the state. In addition, the native species will thank you for your help in removing these nonnatives from their habitat. You will receive a healthy tegu from a gene pool of over thirty thousand tegus mating in the wild.
If you love tegus and would like to assist the balance of nature in a way that protects the very special ecosystem that is the Everglades, this is a purchase you can feel good about.
