    AP enclosures yes or no?

    So it’s finally time to get Kai his forever big boy enclosure. I had him in a home made 4x2x2 before I moved but the wood frame and a side pvc panel ended up cracked during transport. He’s currently in his old 32x18x18 while he’s down for the winter since it was safer to move him in that and now...

    Down for six months

    Alright so this is Kai’s second time down for the winter, last winter he would come up occasionally to drink and bask but this year I haven’t seen him at all. He went down mid October same as last year but he was starting to wake up by mid March last year and he’s still down. I’ve started to...

    Found these balls in tegu cage.

    So those balls you found are actually a slow release fertilizer that miracle grow puts in most of their soil formulas. Great for plants but not for tegus. No matter how much you bake or freeze the stuff it won’t get rid of them, if anything it will cause the shells to break and release the...

    First brumation questions

    so kai went down for the winter about a week or two ago and seems to be in full brumation at this point. I don’t think it’s his first brumation since I got him as a juvenile back in March, but it’s his first brumation with me. I’ve been slowly cutting his “daylight” hours back and made sure his...

    Comment by 'Kaiju Prince' in media 'Can someone tell me what he is?'

    Oh alright! Hopefully he’ll start to get more comfortable with you! Kaiju was going through the same kind of jumpiness when he was shedding just because he was hiding so much but once they start spending more time out and the can actually get a good look at you while you go about your day they...

    Comment by 'Kaiju Prince' in media 'Can someone tell me what he is?'

    Looks like an Argentine to me! Also sorry if I’m wrong but did you fill the bottom of your enclosure with water? If so that may cause the substrate to rot and mold which could be harmful for your tegu at such a young age. I would definitely keep an eye on it and if you notice mold or the smell...

    Picky eater or trouble?

    Where do you find whole chicks? Are they frozen when you get them?

    high density pvc enclosure

    Oh that would work perfectly! I was trying to find something a little closer to that at first and then came across the expanded pvc. This stuff looks like it’s easy to clean to so that’s definitely a plus!

    Picky eater or trouble?

    I always make sure to dust his food and he has a uvb light in his enclosure. I’m also using a multi vitamin twice a week just to cover all my bases

    Picky eater or trouble?

    I’m definitely gonna try the rat prey for sure when he’s adjusted a little more. His basking spot tops out at 101 with an exo terra 100w bulb. Should I get the 150w or would that be to intense? Or should I just get another light to add to the the exsisting basking spot? He also gets a ton of...

    Picky eater or trouble?

    Alright I’ll definitely try the rodents and focus on more whole prey items for him to see if that works after he’s had a little longer to adjust. Thanks for the advice!

    Picky eater or trouble?

    So kai has been with me for about a week now and since he’s still a juvenile I try to feed him every day. I offer him a ground turkey mix with mango, blueberries, and a tiny bit of banana that he only picks at, and insects like crickets, and dried grasshoppers on alternating days. He really only...

    high density pvc enclosure

    Alrighty guys I Was wondering if anyone has used this stuff besides the creators of the animal plastics enclosures, or if you would recommend it. Here’s a link to a website that sells 4’x8’ sheets https://www.usplastic.com/mobile/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=23330 They have a huge variety but I...

    One More for TegusOnly

    Alrighty guys here’s another positive review for Rodney over at TegusOnly! Communication was great and the costumer service was absolutely amazing considering it’s a one man show over there. He sent me pictures of kaiju my little juvenile and it was love at first sight. I promptly ordered the...
