    Colombian Tegu: Nails!

    I try to trim both my guys every few weeks but they don't sit still, and even trimmed they're still brutal. I have about 20 scars from them already.

    Too big to burrow.

    Well, I've been noticing that my big boy xibulba sometimes just doesn't even bother to burrow anymore. He'll lay on top of where he would and just sleep there. They're getting cramped in their current tank (4x2x2) and were building a new one currently but it's so funny to see him just laying...

    Adult Colombian tegus?

    The big one is nearly dog tame. The smaller one is super fast and kinda skittish, and tail whips a lot. But sometimes he surprises me and will just come sit on my stomach if I'm laying on the couch ignoring him.

    Adult Colombian tegus?

    My biggest one easily weighs 5lbs. He's a beast. My smaller ones starting to chuck up. They're both 30"

    Adult Colombian tegus?

    Serious update on my boys!

    Never bothered to try giving them veggies. I tried strawberries once and they didn't even look twice. They love their meat. I just give them a multivitamin sprinkle with their calcium.

    Serious update on my boys!

    I'm not saying you should had feed, I'm just saying its a stigma. Mine are certainly calm, but not as cuddly as I wish they were haha.

    I disagree with not hand feeding. I hand feed both my boys mice, and ground turkey as well as eggs and they've never gone for my hands thinking I'm food. Your little gu looks great. Mine don't like to be held either they much prefer neck or head sitting or crawling down my back and legs to the...
