    Extreme aggression

    I got my tegu an adult cage and everything was fine all the lights and humidity were set and I've been feeding him dead mice but for the past day or so he's been EXTREMELY aggressive. He's always jumping at the sight of anything that comes by the cage and tries to attack it. I had opened the...

    Any taming tricks?

    He just gets really excited when I feed him. He's always jumping up on the screen to try and get out. I'm thinking everything will get better when I get my bigger cage

    Any taming tricks?

    I feed him outside of his cage on a plate. I usually hang out with him for a little bit when he's finished eating

    Any taming tricks?

    That is Avery good idea! I will try this and let you know how it turns out. How has this worked for you? How long did it take for your tegu to get comfortable with you?

    Any taming tricks?

    I've had my tegu Marty since February and he's about 1 and a half years old and going on 2.5 ft. I feed him every other day I either give him 2 medium sized mice or chicken necks. He's bitten me once and ever since I feel like he's a little more aggressive. It could be that I need to feed more...

    First bite

    In wasn't ready for it and yanked my hand away. I know you're supposed to just take it and let him let go but I wasn't looking when he but me. I changed his water after and he didn't pay me any mind

    First bite

    My tegu has bitten me for the first time and drew blood right before I fed him. What should I do now?

    How old is he?

    You might be right, the guy who I got him from told me he was a male but I'm not sure either cause I haven't felt the bead around his tail. I keep his basking spot at 100-105 hot side is around 90 and cool side is at 75

    Is this normal?

    That's all Marty does is sleep and drink but I feed him every other day

    How old is he?

    [attachment=6453]This is when I first got him. The guy that I got him from told me he fed him well and he seems to be in great condition but he sleeps all the time

    How old is he?

    My tegu is about 2 feet long but the guy who I got him from never told me how old he is. Can anyone help?

    Having some trouble

    I've had my tegu Marty for about two or three weeks and I'm still having trouble getting him to open up to me. I pet him in his cage all the time and when I go to pick him up he gets worked up and it gets hard to hold him but he likes being in my sweatshirt. Recently he's starting to get more...

    Is this normal?

    That's what Marty's doing now that he's awake. All he's been doing is walking around drink a little and then basks but he won't eat anything

    Is this normal?

    My tegu Marty just came out of hibernation and is really lethargic via this normal? I have all of his temps and humidity just right. I don't know if I should be worried or just give him time to get back to normal
