Long story short my tegu ate a rubber earbud off of my headphones. I'm not really sure how long ago this happened but at least a week. I didn't witness her doing it but I thought one of the rubber cases had just fallen off.
Today I found it in her poop in her enclosure.
She has been eating...
She tends to fall asleep there at night, but she doesn't sleep the day away. She's actually usually awake before me, clawing at her door to get out of her cage. I have been letting her out when I'm home because the first week I had her she rubbed a little sore on her nose on the front of the...
Hi everyone,
I have a question about my young tegu. I have only had her a few weeks now, I got her around Thanksgiving so it's been about four or five weeks since I brought her home. She's small, probably about 6-8 months old.
She was a bit nasty after we got her home. Lots of huffing and...
She seems healthy. She's alert and has clear eyes and is very active. When I'm home I open the door to her enclosure and let her explore my room. She's already pretty comfortable around me.
I'll be making her a veterinary appointment in a few weeks just to get a fecal sample done and have her...
She seems to be going to the bathroom just fine. Her basking temps are around 95-100 and her cool sideis about 80. Ive been misting her enclosure once a day and her humidity is around 70.
Well I seem to be having a different problem now. Chia doesn't want to eat anything except for superworms and horn worms.
The first few days I had her she was eating a mix of the cat food with some fruits and vegetables. She ate a few berries and salmon. Yesterday I tried feeding her and she...
Is the cat food something that is bad for them?
I'm weary of it because I know the meat that makes it into pet food is usually the lowest quality meat that isn't fit for human consumption.
I'm also curious if she can eat things like canned sardines?(if there is nothing added.)
I think she did. I don't know if she was properly cared for. The person I got her from warned me she was very aggressive but she's been doing fine. She's scared a lot. Very skiddish. She's a little cage defensive but we are working on it. She's already starting to calm down and will let me put...
Yes she is a black and white argentine tegu. She's less than a year old, I'd guess her at about 5-6 months.
So far all she wants to eat is cat food (I'm guessing because this is what she was fed before I got her) and insects. Horn and super worms especially.
Hello everyone!
This is my first post here and I'm a brand new tegu owner. I have experience with many reptiles and snakes and have been doing a lot of research before getting my tegu.
This may sound like a silly question but bear with me. I know what Tegus can eat, and mine has been fed cat...
