    1 year old Tegu, backs away from me?

    Hello guys, I'm really sorry I've not responded, I've had some difficulties with family ties as of late. Just an update, I've been getting more involved a few times a day with him lately and he seems to not be backing away as much, Yeah no aggression, all he is doing is backing away and...

    Also, one last thing, if I take the hide box away, and put Cypress Mulch in a pile, would this be better? I can get to see him to interact with him this way instead of trying to lure him out of his hide box

    How can I tell my Tegus weight is healthy?

    Would be handy to know this too. I have a new Tegu and I'm from UK too (really cold at the moment ! )

    Walter, your a legend thank you. I will leave him be then, I will keep putting in small amounts of food / water in the enclosure. I was worried he may have died and I wouldn't have known or something.

    Hi guys I'm having some issues and as stated, I'm very close to buying the Tegu. I want to make sure I'm not over thinking things. My enclosure humidity at night, I checked it last night and it was at 90% I'm guessing the humidity at 90% over night is bad? In the day the humidity stays at...

    Hello Kay, I read that also, so I thought it would be best to play it safe, I can easily remove the partition if needed and I have topsoil/sand at the read for the next side, I'm glad you like the hide box mate :) I got the idea from seeing about 60% topsoil 30% sand and 10% leaf litter online...

    Great! thank you Walter for the advice, I will do this. I've just brought some chicken hearts, turkey meat balls and I will get some locust, fruit and veg so I can give him/her a variety.
