    Sai my Extreme Giant (Chaco White Giant)

    Why is my young Tegu always climbing on my head?

    roadkill hit the nail on the head. as a juvenile they tend to enjoy high places because in the wild they are easy food for other animals. so being high is their safe spot until they get to big to climb and more. you will notice when your gu is bigger it will just stop.

    Flies out of nowhere

    i had the same problem 2 weeks ago. they were getting in his enclosure through the crack between the (2) sliding doors. i plugged it up and starting cleaning daily and i got this charcoal rod the sucks up the bad odors. seems to be working fine.

    Do they always try to get away?

    my little guy is 2 1/2 months now and he loves to explore. when i take him out his enclosure he will go on my shoulder is head and when im on the couch he usually jumps down and goes exploring and usually winds up under the couch until i get him out!

    Sai my Extreme Giant (Chaco White Giant)

    ok i understand what you are saying. but how am i suppose to tame him if i can not get to him? it seems counter productive.

    Sai my Extreme Giant (Chaco White Giant)

    so i have a problem. i have been doing this taming of sai and i thought it was going well.....today i came home from work and when sai saw me he ran into his hide (which he never does) so i thought that was strange. then after i went and get him out for his soak (because he was shedding he...
