to sell columbians for argentines or not

i have really been thinking about argentine tegus. i love my columbians, no doubt about that but are argentines more enjoyable. Basically, how do i get started with some argentines if i do fall in interest for them. are they easy pets, need many more requirements, or just are they plainly more sweet? i need some opinions folkss. i really want to get a tegu breeding program going and need to decide whether i want little columbians coming out of those eggs or little argentines. thanks, any voice or word shall be heard or read.

Isaac, There are many differences in the two species. I might also add they are nothing alike. The Argentines get so much more tamer and do not require any different housing than the Colombians. They do get much larger however. They also are more valuable, unlike the Colombians. Colombians do not normally make very good pets, the Argentines do. I am one of very few breeders of Argentine tegus, I find that they are one of the best animals in this hobby. JMHO, here is what I raise : www.Varnyard-Herps.com

thanks, are they easy to breed, that is one of the main purposes to get tegus is to enjoy them as pets and breed them

I have been around some Colombians and I own an Argentine from Agama. The Argentine is so much more even tempered and great to deal with than the Colombians. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend an Argentine Tegu to anyone. Bobby is 100% on this and from what I understand a great breeder to deal with.

Tegus are not the easiest, there are some things about breeding them where proper steps must be followed. Many people have tried to breed tegus, however most have been unsuccessful.

I can help you learn how to breed, incubation and other steps you will need to know to produce young.

Also, Thanks Dragondad!!
