I went into a little reptile store in town today that I like to go in every couple of weeks or so to see what new animals they got in. It is an old house that was converted into a store front. The animals aren't taken very good care of, most of their reptiles are in cages that are WAY too small and very filthy with cob webs and dried up poo and food in most of the cages. But it's the only shop that sells exotics besides Petco so I like to look around. I went up to the front to ask the shop owner if he had any tegu book and he replied "No, but there is books on monitors and they're kept the same way". Then he ask what kind of tegu I am getting and I reply "An Argentine Black and white tegu" and he said "Reds are nicer" and he started to walk away then I replied " Well, it depends on who's opinion" then he turned around and looked at me like I was challenging him and said "Well, I have had several of both and reds are nicer". Then he walks away again. Well, I'm not going in there again. I've heard it both ways but I think it depends more on the individual. So guys what has a better temperament? Reds or Blanks & Whites? I would love to hear your thoughts!
