Adult tegu for adoption

Hey guys, its been a long time since I've posted. I'm currently fostering an adult tegu, in the three year old range. He's unfortunately thin, Im in the process of fattening him up. I suck at sexing, Im assuming it's male, but I could be horribly wrong. I wish I had room for him, but with a new puppy, and full time work and class, it's just not going to happen. He's a shade over 40 inches, mostly black, has all his toes, but is missing a few toenails. He had a bad shed and has a slight discoloration on his tail, I'll attempt to put up some pictures later.

I'd prefer not to ship him. He's big and I dont want to take the risk. I'm willing to travel a fair amount to drop him off tho, Im in the Philadelphia area, on the NJ side.

Thanks for looking guys

he is healthy, ill get pics up tonight. he eats anything put in front of him, i've had him less than a week. like i said, he's just a little underfed, but in good shape. i'm in the cherry hill/moorestown area of nj so i could easily drop him off. ill get some pics up in a bit so you can see him

Celeste.Since your mom ( angelrose ) is getting a nother Tegu you have to be even more careful with your bird

.We don't want to get that one eaten,too.Good luck with him/her.

Celeste loves that little bird so much. not only does she have the bird but she has the hamster (furrball), two red ear slider turtles (tina & ted), two fish and recently a drwarf rabbit (cottonball).

we did replace her bedroom door and already there are scratches at the botton from the tegus trying to get in ...lol

tegus are very determined aren't they ?
