Care Sheet Submitted By: Jif
Years Experience: 5 to 10 Years
Main Category: Lizards
Sub Category: Tegus
Species: Tegu
Other Species or Phases this Care Sheet May Cover:
This information pertains to Argentine B/W Tegus, Red Tegus, and Blue Tegus.
Sexing and Characteristics:
Male Tegus are larger than females and develop large jowls. They also have "spurs" which can be felt on either side of the vent. Breeding usually takes place in late spring, early summer with hatchlings arriving in early fall. Females can lay between 15 and 30 eggs.
Mostly Active During: Day
Substrate and Water Needs:
A deep (8-12inches) digable substrate that will hold a burrow is best. Clean dirt mixed with sand or peat works well, as well as Cypress mulch.
Lighting and UVB:
Hatchlings and juvenile Tegus benefit from UVB lighting as Metabolic Bone Disease can be an issue with this species when young. Established adults seem to do quite well without it. Tegus can be kept with lighting on 24/7 but a 12/12 photoperiod is also tolerated very well.
Temperatures and Humidity:
Tegus enjoy a very hot basking temperature, ranging anywhere from 110 to 140 degrees. Of course, a cooler side of the enclosure should be available for thermoregulating. Night temperatures can drop into the 70’s. Tegus will hibernate or brumate in the winter months if the temps are dropped and a cooling period should be used if breeding is intended.

3. Lizards At Trinidad's Asa Wright Nature Centre
Lizards at Trinidad's Asa Wright Nature Centre There's a family of tegu lizards living at Asa Wright, attracted by the food which falls from the bird feeding tables

Lizards at Trinidad's Asa Wright Nature Centre Surprisingly, I only saw two lizards while I was in Trinidad, and they were both at the Asa Wright Nature Centre, so they can't really be described as totally wild. Nor totally polite...
How wude! Still, you've got to admit this collarded tree lizard is pretty spectacular...
...as was the other lizard, which was a Tegu lizard. I was told that the word "tegu" is Latin for tiger, which seems appropriate, but I've since read that "tegu" is actually a South American Indian name for this lizard, and indeed I haven't been able to track down any Latin word "tegu". There are several types of tegu lizard, I think this might be a Gold Tegu (which used to be called tupinambis nigropunctatus but is now called tupinambis teguixin). As you can see, it's got pretty good claws, especially on the hind feet.
There's a family of tegu lizards living at Asa Wright, attracted by the food which falls from the bird feeding tables.
Because they see so many people around the place, they're not shy..
...which might be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on whether you're nervous about confronting a large lizard which has sharp claws and teeth and can move quickly!

Red Tegu Tupinambis rufescens Family: Teiidae Red tegu lizards are native to Argentina. Measuring up to 4 feet in length they are the largest of all the tegus. Adults weigh an average of 20 pounds. Their skin is light reddish brown with dark cross bands. Males develop large jowls and tend to be larger and more brightly colored. Typical adult female coloration is reddish brown with white spots. Our tegus were captive bred and raised, are quite docile and known for their gentle dispositions. They lay an average of 20 eggs once a year. Our tegus arrived at the zoo April 2003 and were about 5 years old. Their names are Mr. Pickles and Mrs. Pickles . They are fed a plant-based diet with lots of fruit and an occasional mouse thrown in for variety.
