thank you guys so much!! I gave the soil back and used alcypress and he seems to be really happy. I remodeled everything, so I feel a lot better about his cage now.
ok, but what should i use underneath the mulch? should i just use all cypress? cause i finally got my hands on some recently at an expo. isn't it like 3/4 soil and 1/4 cypress mulch?
I know most soils come with manure, but I wanna just clarify if its safe or not to have that stuff in the substrate. It says on the package "do not let animals consume" but there is no other options of when it comes to soil. Its organic, all natural. theres no additives and stuff like that...
well lets be realistic. we all want our tegus to have the most space possible. If i could, I would make an outdoor cage that was 20X20, but I can't do that because I don't have the space. Just make sure the cage is more of his sleeping quarters. If he seems very active, take him outside...
im actually ok with him still sleeping cause than I feel safe leaving him for a few days to go snowboard. It sounds bad, I know, but I'm just loving tegus for that reason (and many more). All my other reptiles require a sitter or at least someone who comes in and throws some food in for me.
Don't have any photos yet, that will be next, but I just got a steal a few days ago. A friend of mine who is a breeder had these two geckos he didn't want anymore because he didn't have a breeding partner for them, so he gave them to me for free. I got one Nephrurus levis or Smooth Knob Tailed...
