    Trying to figure out if Laz is male or female

    Laz is about two years old now (have had him/her for a year and was told he/she was a yearling when I got him/her) and only about 30 inches long. I dont know if he/she is just small or if that means its a female. I took a few pics tonight so I was hoping someone who is a lot more experienced...

    Female Blue Tegu

    I am looking for a female, yearling or older, blue tegu. I am in the midwest and would be willing to drive a ways or can pay for shipping. Id like one that at least tolerates being handled but the more friendly the better. Please send me a message if anyone has one that needs a new home. Thanks!

    Yearling tegu help

    Thanks! He is hanging out on the couch with me right now. He did a lot better tonignt when I picked him out of the tank...no tail whipping or struggling. He still like to hide behind my back or under my leg when he is out but at least we are spending time together.

    Average size for a yearling b&w

    I bought my b&w back in March and it was sold as a yearling. What would you guys say is an average length for a healthy yearling tegu? I don't know if mine is a male of female yet. I honestly don't care how big he/she ends up I am just curious to see if I can get an idea of whats "normal"...

    Yearling tegu help

    Forced him to hang out with me tonight. After I got him out of his tank he did really well. I attached a pic. Thanks for all the help!

    Yearling tegu help

    Should I take him out even if it means digging down to find him? I have heard that you shouldn't disturb them when they are hiding so I didn't want to do that and make him fear me.

    Yearling tegu help

    So I got a yearling black and white argentinean a few months back (around March I think) and I have a few questions. When I first got him (he was shipped from FL) he hid for a week or so under the substrate but I read that was normal so I didn't worry about it. During this time I was feeding him...

    Can tegus eat expired meat?

    I know they can handle foods that would make a person sick, raw fish for instance. I have some turkey that I forgot to stick in the freezer and its about a week past due. Obviously I don't want to feed him anything that will make him sick so I thought I would ask. Any opinions? Thanks!
