    Should I pull him from his hide?

    My Tegu that was fairly new at the time stayed under hier hide place. I took it away and she basks for hours and burrows. On one end I have very deep substrate so I can see her, talk to her and get her used to me more each day she doesn’t bite or tail whip but rolls when I pick her up. When...

    EMERGENCY!!!!! (prolapse)

    I’ve had it happen with a person and a dog! I think when I picked her up she always fights for a few, no tail whipping no trying to bite, strong as ****! Because when I saw it there was not substrate on it. I did touch it and thought how the heck am I going to do this!!! I did put her in water...

    I named mine Grizelda after the murderous queen of cocaine in Florida. If it’s a boy then Griz will work

    Goes in hide when I come into room

    I pick mine up and he does struggle a bit and he is super strong! I don’t give up. He’s never tried to bite me or whip me. He’s not super thrilled about me holding him. I don’t really look at him directly into his eyes. I look then look away. He’s growing fast and I believe he’ll be a good one...

    Hello,newbie here...

    The one I got is a black and white firebelly. He’s from Florida and the man I got him from catches them to save them from being killed. Not sure how they got there. Just like all the Burmese Pythons that are there maybe. I ordered mine he came regular mail taking 48 hrs and he was just as I...

    Taming time

    I hold him pretty much every day! He doesn’t like when I take him out but once that part is over it’s ok. He does the gator roll on me!
