Here are a some of pictures of him. Very tatty as you can see, but his red is really showing where he's shed. Although in the flesh, the red is much more impressive than in pictures.

No worries. Red Tegus cand get to 5ft, and this male certainly will be pushing that. He is 46" now, under a year old, and hasn't yet fully developed his jowels.
