the cage will obviously have hides and all the good stuff. I will be feeding outside the enclosure anyways. I was just curious.. I know with a spider it can be a problem and they get freaked out. but thats a little different. I have other tanks 55 and a 90 it can work its way up to the big one...
Alright, so in reality I wont be able to get a Tegu until next year.. but in the meantime I would love to build a large enclosure (9' x 3' x 3') would there be a problem with keeping a baby in its final cage right from the start?
wow I couldnt help but read through that whole BOI... awesome!!! haha he has been big in the bizz since he was 10 or 11! what an amazing dude! lol and he still cant read a care sheet :)
i think a contest is a great idea! though I would like to see it fairly open.. I think expressing why you want to get/ deserve the prize in a number of ways.. that way everyone can participate in an area they are comfortable with. like some pictures and a story.. or logo designs or essays...
I personally dont feed frozen most of the time.. but the process of freezing will eliminate any parasites that may reside in the food items.. this would be more important with say WC frogs and snails if you chose to feed those. I think a fresh piece of food with the blood still warm and pumping...
nice L.para! and yeah the 'new world' species tend to be kicky while they are young and cal down alot as they grow. whats the LS? and try feeding it some juicier bugs :)
parasites are a definite reason to freeze. my BP gets the gerbils cause it seems to really like them and they are a good medium size :) and hey cant go wrong with the natural prey ;)
as for missing the table.. if they have a tail I wont miss.. the other way is to put them in a bag and wialt he bag off the table or door jamb. alot of people cant do that to the cute little rodents.. but oh well.. honestly I think rat pups are the sweetest looking little babies.. but it doesnt...
I keep alot of frogs.. so movement is a good thing. and honestly I think fresh is best for the most part. I also have snakes.. and I do feed live but I basically kill the mouse/rat/gerbil first with a good whack on the head. it leaves them kicking but instantly KOd and I think that is the nicest...
