How long dose it take a golden tegu to grow fully sized?

Question

i got a gold tegu and i wanted to no how long it take for it to grow or how many years ..i heared it takes 2 / 3 years.

Answer 1

I don't know, I'm not experienced with large lizards, but 3 years sounds about right.

Answer 2

Firstly do not listen to the second answer you got here, "feed it more and it will grow". you should never overfeed any animal under any circumstances especailly lizards as they can become compacted which leads to death. Anyway a tegu is much like a bearded dragon in life expectancy, which is around 10 to 12 years for a healthy one. It should take about 2 years to be fully grown. Remeber, dont over feed.

Answer 3

It depends on how much you feed it. The more you feed it, the faster it will grow.
