  1. Q

    Tegu enclosure with large water section/aquarium.

    Thank you. Do you think he would/could catch the fish often? I have a minnow in his current water dish. He went for it once realized it was underwater and hasn't given it a second look. I'm okay losing a couple fish here and there but many of the fish I keep are pricy and losing them more than...

    Tegu enclosure with large water section/aquarium.

    So what do you guys think k of me combining my hobby of fish keeping and my love for tegus by making an enclosure that has a 300 gal aquarium/Water area. Do you think the tegu would use the water if it was set up with a gradual shoreline and of so do you think we would actively hunt the larger...

    Red patches

    Will update thread as he ages. Hopefully I get some high whites and light reds.

    Red patches

    The pictures really don't do it justice, but my gu just went through his second full shed and the rust red color is still developing on his flanks, sides of his neck, and base of his tail. Not sure if these will continue to develop or fade with age. I'm hoping for light red patterns on his sides.

    Red patches

    Thanks for the insight. I will definitely post updates as he matures. I would actually be pretty happy if he turned out to be mix of red and chacoan. I really like the look of a lighter red color with white.

  8. Q

    Red patches

    My hatchling chacoan is shedding for the first time and I am noticing very faint red markings on him. Is this normal? I got my chacoan from underground reptiles and am pretty sure that he is pure black and white with no red bred in. I will post pictures soon. The red is very light so I hope it...
  9. Q

    Is this normal?

    I always feed until he stops eating and he gets fed twice daily. Although now that you mention it I am going to stop making him worm for his food. I would hate for him to hurt himself.
  10. Q

    Is this normal?

    I just recently got a hatchling chacoan from underground reptiles who to my suprise started eating right away. He isn't interested in anything besides crickets or frozen pinkies. The other day I was feeding him and playing with the pinkie a bit to really get him excited to eat. At one point I...

    First Tegu

    I just got my first tegu, Deviljho, on the 5th of this month. I'm not new to reptiles but am very excited and a little nervous to take care of this little guy. I've been out of the reptile game for quite a will as I was and am keeping monster and predatory fish but wanted to get back into...
