    Will an 8 month old Tegu overeat ??

    I have a stupid question really. I have been told that up until a Tegu reaches about a year old you can feed them as much as they will eat. Is this true? I am concerned because my Tegu is becoming quite the little fatty after every meal. She waddles back into her cage a lot slower then when...

    This may be biased....BUT...Who do feel is the best Tegu breeder

    For any Canadians out there, I recently received a Tegu from Tegu Topia. The Tegu I received is very healthy and the breeder is extremely knowledgeable. This is my first Tegu ever so I can't offer too much of an opinion but you will not be disappointed as far as I am concerned :P

I'm guessing if I lower the wattage of the basking light I can get my "cool end"...

    Some Tegu Questions from a Newbie

    I have attached some photos of the enclosure. The room is fairly small so it was hard to get a good photo. There is a cover on the right end similar to the left end, I just had it removed as I was making some adjustments inside the enclosure. The temperature ranges about 95 to 105 at...

    Some Tegu Questions from a Newbie

    Hello everyone, I just received my Tegu about 6 days ago. She is so great. At first I wanted to get another green iguana as I have owned them and housed several rescues in the past. I always thought they were great. However, after only 6 days of owning a Tegu I am fairly confident that I...
