I'll add a picture soon to help clear any confusion but my yearling has tiny little pinkish red in the lines between a few of her head scales and I'm curious what this could be. My biggest worry is that she has retained some head shed without me noticing and the skin under is necrotic but I...
I love them all (even the American one to be honest, even though its a terrible representation of Godzilla) but my favorite is definitely the first one. My second is a tie between Final Wars and Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack!
I don't either, haha, but its her choice not mine. She just won't take whole foods other than pinkies and I don't feed my tegus or monitors live they don't reach to movement with bites.
Ooh, interesting! I'm excited to hear it whenever it does become public or if you're willing to share.
I think the concern stems from the horror stories you here from herpers of hatchlings that didn't grow due to bone deformities or lack of UV light or calcium or a load of other things. I have...
Sorry to double post but I'm starting to get a bit worried now, I'm seeing pictures of others yearling and mine isn't even remotely close to that size. Most people's tegus seem to be about the length of their arm at this age and mines head and body fit in my hand still, her tail reaching my...
I very nearly bought a snapping turtle but I don't have a pond or any room for one. At some point I'll probably end up with a beetle of some sort and I'll call it Megalon. I'd love to get an Armadillo lizard at some point, probably call it Anguirus.
I know varanids have a higher metabolic rate than most lizards but you can still get by feeding them once every few days or one big meal a week, but I have no idea as far as tegus go. I'm pretty sure they're more ectothermic than monitors, so I might even space the meals out a bit. I know once...
Alright, I'll be sure to up the amount I use when eats tomorrow. Her feeding schedule is every other day, by the way, she refuses food when I've fed her the day before or only takes a nibble and goes back to sleep so I've gotten her into the habit of having a big meal around noonish when she's...
Happy to be a member!
My Argentine's are Gojira and Gorgo (both males). Nice to see another kaiju fan here, haha. My only monitor (an Argus) is named Varan, my Ball Python is Manda, and one of my Bearded Dragons is Baragon so I have quite a lot in the way of giant monster-named pets.
Thanks for all the advice everyone! The vitamin spray I use is actually home made, one of my breeders uses it and it seems to work pretty well, his tegus (and he has quite a lot) are all very healthy and happy. I'm not 100% sure on the ingredients since I buy it in bulk from him but I think...
My little girl is about 10 months old now, and I've been worried about her growth. She is a little over a foot long, something like 14-15 inches (I can measure her tomorrow but she's asleep and I'd rather not mess with her right now) and I'm curious as to if they should be bigger at this age...
