    Waking up tegus for food or handling?

    My columbian is 22in and my red is 14in because of the lost tail. Their abdomends are pretty close to the same weight though.

    Waking up tegus for food or handling?

    No they both have a 4x2x2 enclosure. But they don't have a problem with each other so I let them roam around together, its easier that way. This is a picture of them in my bathroom together, though I individually feed them by hand.

    Waking up tegus for food or handling?

    I know this seems like a simple question but its something Ive wondered for a while. If I wake them up will I interrupt a sleeping schedule or should I just go according to their schedule? I don't want to agitate them by waking them up all the time but sometimes I don't see them for 2-3 days and...

    Hello!

    I have heard the same thing as well, but my columbian eats apple, blueberry, mango, and sometimes peas. He seems to like them so I feed them to him.

    What Tegu Is Best For Me

    I will just say this: My Columbian B&W took 2 months of daily handling as a hatchling just to not tail whip me when I pick him up, and my Argentine Red (also a hatchling) is crawling up my arm out of the enclosure to be handled after 4 days.Argentines definitely get bigger so depending on your...

    Hello!

    If he is picky about food don't just keep giving him raw eggs, my little guy did that as well. You have to ween him off, sooner or later the raw eggs can make him sick or they just wont provide enough nutrients. Make him wait a couple days. Sooner or later he will eat something else, but that...

    Is Eating wood chips normal?

    He eats fruits when he wants them, apples, occasionally, mangos, blueberries and cantaloupe.I've never seen him eat them before, and I only saw him eat one peice about the size of my pinky fingernail.

    How can we improve TeguTalk?

    Don't Know if it's a problem for anyone else but when I get on TT on my phone the website does this. I use the chrome app.

    Is Eating wood chips normal?

    Walked into my reptile room just now and discovered my 2m/o columbian eating his cypress mulch. I know crocodilians eat rocks to help with digestion so Im wondering if its something like that. He is not hungry, he just ate this morning, and I dont want to see him get impacted. He swallowed it...

    My new baby.

    Thanks, the substrate info was very helpful. Im currently in the process of gathering the materials for a custom enclosure so I can get her out of an aquarium. Once I am finished building it I will be ecstatic to try the new bio-active substrates.

    My new baby.

    Just picked her up today. Super skittish and has an almost fully regrown tail. I couldn't be happier, would love to know what you guys think. (Sorry for the bad quality, taken on my phone)

    Something stuck in throat?

    I saw a vet just to assure his safety, wasn't anything abnormal, maybe a piece of eggshell he didn't quite get down, but he's fine now, thanks
