    Enclosure

    A female gold would fit comfortably in a 4 x 2 x 2, mine is nearly two years old and moves comfortably in hers. They really aren't the biggest of lizards, but still have decent size on them.

    Columbian tegu enclosure -- thoughts?

    So this thing went through many iterations and reconstructions, and now my little girl is not so little, and in a 4 x 2 x 2. Im very happy with it.

    First time Tegu owner

    You gotta take it bit by bit, as far as i am aware, this species is harder to tame as opposed to the Argentine puppy lizards, lol. I've worked with my female steadily the last few months, and there has been progress. Generally, getting your hand in there, within reason, and letting them see you...

    My setup! Diet and what not.

    He looks great. I'd guess 2-3months old or so.

    Monitor lizards after Ackies

    Black throats get friggin' enormous, i'd say get a tegu or a sav.

    golden tegu questions

    Yes, because feeding your animals a live rat when your lizard is an adult is a terrible thing. I feel sorry for lot like you.

    Tegu poo

    Dietary changes sometimes bring that on. It's common in the GI tract as far as i know. Young tegus can be picky, that is also normal. Just keep an eye on it

    Colombian rescue tegu

    I wouldn't allow them to free roam until they get big. When mine was a wee one, she ran out of my room and between my dishwasher and cabinets. They like to squeeze into the smallest spaces when they can.

    New Baby Colombian Tegu

    They have such judgemental eyes lmao. They're really cool animals when they're used to you and their environment. Don't deserve the bad rep they have

    Any advice on feeding fruits & veggies?

    Does any one have any suggestions for getting my tegu to eat fruits and veggies when they're offered? Right now i'm just constantly introducing, but she just smells them and walks away until she gets her crickets and dubias :p Any helpful suggestions are appreciated

    Golds are fun animals. I recommend them if you've got the time to devote to them.

    New tegu not eating and hiding help!

    I waited about a week before offering food just so mine got acclimated to her surroundings. Like previously said, normal stuff.

    Concerns with time underground

    Tegus like to spend time underground, especially when young. It may make him feel more secure as well.
