    Tegus and Trout

    Hey guys! Just a question. I have access to a bait vendor from my store and he is able to provide me with frozen whole trout in various sizes from a hatchery for little money. They are not treated with any preservatives like the devilish sodium tripolyphosphate. The only thing is the...

    Taking advantage of my job as a butcher!

    Does anyone have a good recipe to follow? I have read it is a good idea to add in beef liver and cod liver oil among other things. It kinda hard to find reliable information on the web it seems for Tegu care. D:

    So where'd you get your Tegu?

    Well I'd be looking into a hatchling for that reason. Or do you mean it takes multiple generations of captive breeding? Rodney offers hatchlings. Are they a personal stock he breeds or does he breed wild ones directly for sale?

    So where'd you get your Tegu?
