    One more question

    I have to say Tonka is pretty awesome in that there have been a couple of days in a row that when I came home he was already asleep and I didn't bother him. And during that time I didn't feel that any of the work I did with him was undone. I don't even really feel that he will bite me anymore as...

    One more question

    Hello from Tonka and his new people

    Well, I think like a lot of tegu owners, I debated the issue of getting a tegu for 2 or 3 years. However, once I broke down and decided to take the leap, did I do it for one of the cute lil hatchlings? Nooo. I got Tonka, an argentine B&W who was previously owned, about 17 inches long, and came...
