Its different for every tegu. My tegu is in the process of being tamed and basically it goes 5 steps forward, 4 steps back. It will take time for the tegu to trust you.
well when my tegu was a hatchling the 1st owner (i am his 2nd owner) put him in a 75gal tank and he was very scared (he felt that he would be eaten) and didnt eat and didnt grow much. so i would recommend buying a smaller tank until he is ready to move to a bigger tank.
So i came home from school, and like i do every day i look at Owen. Well today, Owen was chewing on about a 1 1/2 inch cyprus wood chip. So i opened the doors and tried to grab it. He ran in his hide and finished it. I am very concerned, can tegus digest wood? What should i do?
Thanks in...
