    It is a black and white Argentine. A nice young lizard too. Though that is a bit high in price. That is more akin to a red tegu, not a black and white. Black and white Argentines at least in the US tend to be between 100-180 US dollars.

    Definitely an Argentine and definitely pricey. If you do pick this little guy up be sure to get some calcium and UV onto him right away. One of the first signs of MBD is a shortened snout and it looks like he might be affected.

    I don't understand such a price. I know people are trying to make money with the economy like it is, but that's just high.

    The price isn't to bad. Its two years old, prolly ready to breed next year. If its tame think of all the time they had to put into it. If its healthy think of all the food it took. A hatchling and an adult wont cost the same lol.

    And then I looked at the pictures lol. That tegu is either an 08 or is extremely small for its age. I would wait for the 09s to hatch in 2-3 months

    Yes, it's a Argentine b/w Tegu.I think for him/her being 2 years old he/she is very small.I thinks so, too, that the price is way to high.
