    Arm Dislocation?? Please Help! :(

    Im so sorry this happened. I've been in the same place with money before. This is what I did.. and anyone who has severe financial issues and a vet unwilling to work with you should do this: Get CareCredit. Its a kind of credit card for vet care. Almost all vets will accept it. You can go online...

    Cute video of toddler with tegu

    This is my son with my tegu. The babies are my best friends kids that are part of our family (make believe grandchildren). The mother totally trusts my gu (who has never even hissed let alone threatened to bite). The father is very leery. So, as a compromise I have the gu held this way and...

    Should I Get A Chacoan?

    You're actually not crazy. I know a lot of people say they only spent something like 300 dollars in supplies to make an enclosure. I'm not saying they are lying, but they are definitely underestimating the tiny costs that add up. Not to mention if you have no access to used materials. Take a...

    Calcium in bulk?

    I can't deal with the cost of these tiny jars of calcium. I know there are cheaper options. And possibly ones that would be larger than the 2-6 or so ounces. Can someone direct me to where I could buy some? I found options where you can buy a pound on Amazon... but it says ground limestone (it...

    Suspected Costs?

    As far as getting started, this will help you a lot. Exact prices on each item are not there, but you will get the idea. The first portion of the article shows what is involved with the enclosure. Down the page you will find a list of what you need to keep a tegu once you are set up...

    In need of a Argentine B&W tegu

    I believe TeguTerra is right in Ga. So if you shipped it would be quick. Also Florida has a few breeders which isn't too far for you or for shipping in a short amount of time.

    Short Tailed Oppossum. Small marsupial from the Brazilian rainforest. AWESOME pets and are happy in captivity. Not hard. Not expensive. Make great little pals you can take around in a pouch too.

    Trust

    Most forums are "dead" now. Blame Facebook. Facebook has turned out to be both awesome and not so much. All my groups died. No one and I mean no one posts on the yahoo or email groups. Like, ever. Boards like this are so, so slow. Facebook has turned out to be a place where you can "do it...

    Substrate??

    I used cypress only because I have a weight issue on the second floor (sand/soil would be so heavy). I dont feed near the cypress. Ever. Also, I've noticed I need to "churn" the bedding now and then with my hands (a couple times a week worked out best). This bedding was working out spectacular...

    Future Owner Questions

    Okay, I've seen it ALL!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOL. This is a riot. And ingenious. I'm wondering if it would be better/safer to use the newer types of plastic wheels that have no center bar, wire, etc. You should recommend this to everyone that comes on here with tiny babies.
