Hey guys i have been so busy recently i havent visited the site. i am just here to inform you that my first tegu, Tico, that i regretably bought from LLL Reptile at an expo, has died, after about a year and a half of being a picky eater, countless vet visits and many good times, he has passed. Such a shame too because him and my female Tequila were just getting used to each other. Just thought i should let you guys know. But Tequila is better than ever. And im so glad bobby gave me such a wonderful pet. Thanks for the support guys :)

Sorry for your loss Jerry. You never know when something like this can happen. Our Blue died with no warning and was eating fine.

Vegeta has a new home, a member from here has him now, (Mr.Critter) taking good care of him,. last we spoke we were checking something that looked like mouth rot that was forming, but havent heard from him since, he took pics of him not too long ago and he looked great. Im not on as much as before.

Aww man, sucks that you had to get rid of Vegeta Jay. But im sure Mr. Critter is giving him just as great a home as you were. And that also stinks Dave, Hows downsizing your collection going?

Jer - I am very sorry for your loss. It is good that he had you to give him the greatest life possible while he was here with us.

Dave - I didn't realize that you lost one of your blues. I am very sorry to hear this as well.
