    New tegu diarrhea help please

    I can lower my basking lights, the uv is mounted inside the cage. Thank you so much! My new little tegu still won't really eat, but it's been only 3 days so I'm not too worried yet.

    New tegu diarrhea help please

    Ok glad the uv is good, the temp goes from about 105 on the hot end, to about 72 on the cool end. I was mostly concerned about uvb, since of see a lot of people recommend the power sun and I've got a tube. Really appreciate the help guys! I live only a few miles from where my new tegu was caught...

    New tegu diarrhea help please

    Any advice on proper heating/lighting? I've got the repti sun 10.0 tube that covers 40 inches of the 48 length of my enclosure, and two heat lamps, one 150 watt and the other 75. Is that good?

    New tegu diarrhea help please

    This is the new baby, if you meant the stool I've already cleaned it, but lightish brown with firm white urate, the rest is very liquid. I'm not sure if they get stress diarrhea or I should just get right to a vet. I'd hate to stress it more if it is not necessarily

    New tegu diarrhea help please

    My new tegu finally unburied itself, and I just saw very loose stool, with normal urates. Can this be just stress from shipping or possible diet change? When should I worry/take to vet?

    Keeping tegus on a budget, how to save money!

    My only concern is that regular fluorescent lights don't have uvb, unless I'm wrong? I use the repti sun 10.0

    New rescue tegu

    Hey guys, I've been a reptile mom for years, but this is my first tegu. It's a wild caught rescue (the everglades where they are non native invasives and are shot on site). It's about 10 to 12 inches long snout to vent, missing a good bit of tail. It's day 3, and is burrowed still. Any guess on...
