    Fitting giant cages through doors?

    Definitely make it to be collapsible. I made the mistake years ago when I had an adult iguana, and planned on moving him into a spare bedroom. I can't remember the exact dimensions, but I made the enclosure so it could fit through doors, but it couldn't make the turn because of how the house was...

    Cage size

    Depends on what kind of tegu. Argentine tegus need more than a Columbian tegu. Argentine should have that 8x4x4, while the Columbian could get away with 6x3x3. At least that's according some of the websites I've read about enclosure size. I'm not a professional by any means. I'm with my first...

    I have a tegu about 2 years old. He's been kind of not eating as often even though I give him some food every day. But I've also been trying to give him more fresh fruits and veggies. Not the freeze dried stuff you rehydrate. I feel like I spoiled him by not varying his diet enough. It used to...

    New Tegu and Enclosure pics!

    I will say, from my own personal experience, I didn't have any luck with live plants. My tegu would burrow so much that he kept digging them up. But I did get mine when he was a year and a half old, so he was a bit bigger, and didn't let the plants settle into their new substrate as long as I...

    Scented sprays for fresh fruits and veggies

    I'm slowly changing my tegus food over to fresh fruits and veggies. He seems to not be as interested in them as much as the freeze dried. But the freeze dried is becoming to be so small for him that it seems a lot doesn't get eaten. Been using the zilla omnivore mix. I know reptilinks has...

    Mistking schedule

    I have a one and half year old black and white Argentine. His name is ralph. Just recently got him and he's my first. Awesome little guy. I was wondering what a good misting schedule is for him. I have a mistking starter kit with two separate spray nozzles on each side. My tank is 48x24x16 or...
