    post ur setups please

    Just Beware, if you dont put sealant on the heads of the drywall screws they will rust, hence why it is suggested you use an exterior screw such as a decking screw.

    Does he look skinny?

    Not unhealthy skinny but he could definitely use some more meat.

    Guru

    He's not overweight, it's just that he is laying down and its splooging out the sides I think.

    Help with Building a Great Enclosure (Pics of enclosures are welcomed)

    This is my juvie cage. It's 4x2x2 with a tub on top for my baby Brazilian Rainbow. And the gray bin is my roach colony. Now this cage sits on the floor with a 4x6 pen attached to the front for my tegu to roam out during the day. Soon it will become the primary enclosure for my brb and my tegu...

    Do Tegus generally eat less if they don't hibernate?

    He eats large adult dubias six days a week, and once a week scrambled eggs and raw turkey which he loves. All his food is dusted with Reptivite. On his "nibbling" days he just kills the roaches, then leaves them. He has a full spectrum zilla bulb and two halogen heat lamps. [hr] As far as his...

    Do Tegus generally eat less if they don't hibernate?

    So this is my first Tegu, and first winter with him. His cage is around 82 degrees, he basks 7 hours a day in his hot spot of 120 degrees, his body is warm to the touch but he only really devours his food every 3 days, nibbles just a little the other 2. I'm just scared of his metabolism in that...

    Reptile Bark?

    Yeah I keep most of my animals with no substrate but for humidity for animals that need a lot it works great, ReptiBark won't hold moisture as log as something like cypress mulch but I personally like the "natural" look to dark substrates.

    Finally Finished The Enclosure

    Great Cage, the Melamine won't swell so long as no water gets to the ends of the sheets, the sides where you can see the pressed and glued wood. Your silicone will keep that from happening.

    Reptile Bark?

    You'll just need to be careful how you feed him. If he's handleable I'd suggest taking him out of his enclosure at feeding time and put him in a plastic bin or tub for feeding then putting him back in his cage. It provides a great opportunity to socialize with him, and teaches him that things...

    hold breath

    As soon as I clean out the water bowl for mine every night he climbs right in and soaks for a few, poops then goes back to basking lol. Makes for easy poop clean up but super annoying having to change his water twice in 10 minutes every night.
