    Building materials for a tegu vivarium

    Rocks If your near a river just get some from there. Disinfect them though maybe an oven. Also some tegus like going waste in water, the filter might be over worked lol when It's built post pics please sounds awesome.

    Whole prey only?

    My guys Love ground Turkey mix and dubia the most! I don't feed while prey unless I find some cheap at an expo but that's 2 times a year. I think though as long as he is healthy on whole prey just give some variety so get doesn't get bored of a food he likes. Find a farm and ask for babies Lol!

    tegu nail trimming

    Towel over them and securely and gently grab a foot and clip clip. Been doing it for a year or so. Local pet stores If you can find one may do it for a fee.

    feeding cat food?

    Turkey and egg yolks Maybe. I eat egg whites they can have my yolks Lol.

    Would these be ok for a tegu?

    Maybe soak the eggs in a large bucket of water to get some of the salt out. I know some people do it with olives.

    Feeding Live vs F/T

    The only issue I have with live is the chance of them being sick and or having parasites. Frozen can have parasite issues too I hear.

    Safe feeding of new adult tegu

    Have the food in a separate container in a separate room.Make sure to wash your hands/ smell of food best you can from yourself. Have the food present in the room then bring him in. You want to not be associated with food. If you were underfed and then this object started giving you food, you...

    How to soak a tegu?

    Can you coax him into a tub from the cage. Get a box and put some food in it, when he does go, in turn off the lights (make sure you can see). Then you can get him into the tub for soak. It'll lessen the stress if you don't man handle him.

    Ahhhh gnats/small flies.

    Not sure if its that season of the year but ugh... their existence annoys me. I was reading an old thread on how to get rid of them, Jame w.'s idea look good.

    Breeding mice?

    I worked in a pet store, we didnt breed mince or rats but the amount of waste they can make in a day is ridiculous also very smelly.... if you do, make a comfortable wire bottom and place the cage over a hole, that way you can just keep burying all the waste and move the cage around outside.

    this is why we cant have nice things.

    Lol just watched the vids, maybe tegus are like truffle pigs. I'll start digging when ever they try to get under something. :-P
