    Suddenly agressive??

    So yesterday we were laying on my bed doing nothing, I was reading a book and she seemed so be just chilling. Then out of nowhere I looked up from my book and she was latched onto me again. She bit me again! I am getting really worried. I put so much effort into training her and bonding with her...

    Deeper bonding

    I've had her her whole life. I got her when she was a month old.

    Deeper bonding

    My 1 1/2 year old female black and white argentine rarely has any aggression problems. However we still don't seem to have the bond I would like us to have. She huffs and puffs when I take her out or try to pet her, even when she is out. She struggles and whips her tail a bit when I pick her up...

    Issues with sudden snap of aggression due to "freedom"

    I've been having a smilar problem with my gu, but not quite as bad. She's only charged at me a few times, it's mostly huffing and puffing. I don't know what could have triggered it with mine, I've had her since she was a month old.

    Tegu Nails

    I have filed my tegus nails a bit with a normal nail filer, that seemed to smooth them down a little.

    Thanks! One more question, does she look like a good size for her age? Does she seem to be growing well?

    Suddenly agressive??

    Is the larger enclosure making her nervous? Is there anything I can do to make her more comfortable?

    Suddenly agressive??

    She wasn't eating yet when I went to pick her up. However come to think of it, I had just moved her to a bigger enclosure....

    Suddenly agressive??

    I thought that maybe too...but she didn't take time to smell me before biting like I would think she would with a bite of that nature. Also she did not let go at the point where I assume she would have realized my thumb was not her dinner, I had to remover her off my thumb somewhat forcefully...

    Suddenly agressive??

    My female black and white has always been very mellow and sweet. She is coming up on two years old now. The other day I had her out while I was preparing her food and I went to pick her up and she latched onto my thumb. She claimed down and did not want to let go. She bit right through my nail...

    Only eats eggs and grapes

    My black and white tegu Avana will only eat eggs and grapes. She is a little more then a month old, although I have had her for about three weeks. Her limited choice of food concerns me because she is not getting a proper diet. I am becoming worried and any help will be appreciated.
