    Age?

    Not really because considering I bought him in April 22 he would of have to have been born in late February or early March in order for him to have been 6 weeks old when I bought him. And don’t tegu babies hatch in like June and July?

    Hi everyone, I got my baby red tegu back on April 22 at the New York reptile expo. When I purchased him/her I forgot to ask when the tegu hatched. My tegu was about 13 inches long when I bought him. So my question is how old is he?

    Poop issue?

    I’m not sure if you missed my reply but I already said he’s been doing fine, this thread is almost 2 weeks old. This has absolutely nothing to do with his diet as he eats whole prey that I know comes from a good place because I’m the one who kills it. It was all about the humidity and how it...

    Poop issue?

    Well I took offense from it (but hey maybe I read it wrong then), I don’t mean to offend you but please do not tell me how to appreciate life. Trust me when I say this, I know much more than you do about life and death and I’m up close with it nearly everyday so I realize how fragile it can be...

    Poop issue?

    I said I don’t have it RIGHT NOW, I didn’t say I wasn’t going to buy it, and everyone says that the minimum for a baby tegu is a 20 gallon long. Like I stated before Its temporary till I get a bigger one built and as of now all the temperatures are on point in the enclosure. And how can you even...

    Poop issue?

    I have a job and can afford the animal but I don’t have $600 currently to spend on vet bills for a lizard. I found out that I put wet towels on parts of the top of the tank and I keeps the humidity at 71% now so it seems to be working. Also he’s been active and it almost seems as if nothings...

    Poop issue?

    The substrate is cypress mulch, and the basking temp stays between 111 and 114 degrees. I have to use a ceramic heat emitter because my room is cold which keeps the cool side of the enclosed at 80 degrees during the day and 73 to 75 degrees at night. It’s just strange because he’s never pooped...

    Poop issue?

    Oh god I don’t know if I have enough money for a vet, I put him is a bath and he seems ok now. It also went back in about 10 mins after I took the picture an it looks like nothing happened. If not sure how he could be impacted because I watch him everytime I feed him. I have been having an issue...

    Poop issue?

    Hey guys, my tegu just went to the bathroom and I took this picture of something that I’m a bit worried about. Is this his hemipenis or something worse? I have never seen this before, that’s why I’m worried.

    Male or Female?

    Seriously? Nobody?

    Male or Female?

    Hey everyone, just wondering if it’s possible to tell the sex of my baby red. I’ve had it for almost a month and I haven’t named it yet due to not knowing the sex. I’ll attach the best possible photo that I could get. Any help would be great :)

    Very wild tegu

    Not too sure then, some tegus just aren’t as human dependent as others, it’s all about there personalities and everyone of them is different.

    I have a baby red right now and he’s quite flighty but he’s warming up to me, how much time do you usually spend with him a day?
