Oh, thank you. That addressed some of my concerns! I can't believe he turned down the mouse!!
Guess what!!.....it appears mine ate his first raw egg yesterday! I say "appears" because I didn't actually see him do it. But the yolk was smeared all over the dish. Some egg white was still...
I am so grateful for the advice and support. I have offered the raw egg for 3 days straight now and, same-o, nothing doing. He/She has not eaten anything for weeks now. I am so concerned. I guess I will have to work in the mice. They are just so creepy!! He just really seems content in his...
Wow, no he/she doesn't burrow down at all. He just stays on top of his substrate, but mostly stays inside his hollowed out log. He opens his eyes when I enter his habitat, but if he doesn't want to eat, or if he doesn't want me around, he closes his eyes and ignores me. If I try to hard to get...
OK....I'm puzzled...... In doing some research, I think he may have started brumation, but I'm not sure. He/She has a very low amount of activity right now. The most moving around that he does right now is turning himself around inside his hollowed out log and facing the opposite direction . He...
I'm getting concerned. He/She hasn't eaten ANYTHING in 2 weeks. He has been shedding for at least that long. I offer him food everyday, but he turns his back on me and closes his eyes, in his usual fashion... What shall I do?
LOL You really have no idea how much I am the least likely person to own one of these, let alone care for one. He {or she??} only wants to sleep. When I approach his habitat, he opens his eyes and watches me, but he never moves. When it's his meal time, I approach his habitat, he watches me...
You have been so encouraging and helpful. I'm still trying to figure out all of the equipment in his habitat - but, frankly, I think he is going to need a bigger habitat. He's in the largest standard reptile habitat and it looks like it is closing in on him. My husband is not going to like that...
OMG! The first thing that grabbed me was the food!! Thawed MICE? How do you feed the raw cracked egg? That's more up my alley. I am so doing this all wrong. Let me go study his habitat and I'll give you a full description. Thanks for the reply and assistance. Limbo Linda
I am a newbie, newbie.....Never in my wildest dreams did I ever plan to have possession of a black and white Argentine Tegu. I soooo do not know what I am doing. He (or she??) belongs to my 14 year old Grandson. A recent divorce turned everything upside down and, somehow, grandma got the Tegu...
