    4x2x2 for a baby tegu?

    Awesome thanks for the quick response. I will just immediately move it to the bigger cage, hopefully it will last it a bit so I can get a bigger one built! :D

    4x2x2 for a baby tegu?

    I remember reading somewhere that a baby tegu can get stressed if in too large of an enclosure. I currently have my red tegu in a cage that is 30"x15"x15" but am wondering if I should just move it straight up to a 4'x2'x2' cage I have. I know the bigger one isn't huge but would that be big...

    My Red Tegu!

    Ok will do. It is in a temp cage and I will be setting up its real cage tomorrow and moving it. I think I will feed it in it's cage for now, I want to make sure it is getting enough to eat. Then move to a feeding bin after a week or two, is that a good plan? Or keep trying the feeding bin?

    Tips for picking out a Colombian

    Thanks guys for the fast input. My wife went in yesterday and looked again, confirmed it is a Colombian for sure and was unimpressed by the owner telling her 9 months and from a breeder, vs the employee before saying 1.5 years from someone giving it up. So due to the conflict and excessively...

    Tips for picking out a Colombian

    I will definitely not pay $150, I would see if the owner will come down. We have a bunch of guinea pigs we were breeding and selling, now ready to get rid of the horrible things, considering a trade if the owner goes for it. Basically is the size ok? (if i get the price down) and anything else...

    Tips for picking out a Colombian

    Hi, first post here and hopefully one of many, as I intend to get a tegu as my first large reptile. :D A local pet store has a Colombian Tegu for sale that I am interested in. I originally wanted and Argentine, but am debating this guy. They got it as an Argentine B/W but they think (seemed very...
