Herro from washington!

Hey everyone! I have been a member of "thetegu.com" for about a year and a half now. & I thought I'd venture over here to see whats up! I'm sure I will recognize some other members who are on both sites too.

For those who don't know me yet though....
I am working on my BA in Ecology, Evolutionary, and Organismal Biology at WWU. I love everything biology related (except microbiology, like DNA and stuffs); Especially reptiles. I own a male Argentine B&W named Dio, hes from a local Seattle breeder, I got him at Seattle Reptile and Fish. He hatched somewhere around the 4th of July 2010. He sprouted up to 47 inches in like 7-8 months and hasn't grown since. I am quite obsessed with him, he has the perfect attitude and I can take him anywhere. Everyone loves him, from the elderly to infants.

I also have an Axolotl named Smaug. I'd probably be a reptile and amphibian hoarder if I could get away with it (empty tanks are so hard to look at), but I don't want to risk getting evicted.

Looking forward to meeting everyone here!

Welcome, and hello from Olympia!

Where at in Washington? Welcome to tegutalk. I've found that this site is a lot more active then thetegu. There are a bunch of members on here that are also members over there. Do you have any pictures of your critters? We love pics

Grew up in the San Juans(Decatur), high school in Anacortes, and college in Pullman and now Bellingham. I haven't ventured far from home permanently, but I totally have been bitten by the travel bug. I wanna do some sort of herpetological field work in South america when I'm done with my BA.

here are some pictures of just a few of my Pets, and past pets..

Welcome to the site; I'm rather new to it as well. Me and my boyfriend just brought home about a month old Agrentina B&W on Friday we named Nagion. New to tegus - not so new to the reptile scene. Had about everything else and currently have a tortoise as well. Can't wait til Nagion gets bigger so I can tell what it is - hoping turns out to be a boy. =]

 

[saided]

Aww he's very cute! Nagion looks boyish to me, luckily it's 50/50 with the whole sex determination thing Keep on the lookout (more like feelout?) for spurs/buttons, Dio's showed up around 5/6 months; but he didn't exactly hibernate his first year so he grew all winter.

 

[thenikkix3]

Yeah - fingers crossed hes a boyy; I've read up and asked around on what to look for on sexing them. I just wish he would hurry up and grow so I could tell since I couldn't bring myself to have him probed.. poor thing would feel so violated! I know I would. lol

 

[saided]

HA! ya for sure... but time will fly by. He's gunna grow SO fast.
