    G'Mork update.

    Update on my Argentine B+W tegu, G'Mork. he was born mid August, so he's 2.5 months old now. He eats like a horse. I ordered 2,000 super worms, 200 dubia, and 2 pounds of whole frozen smelt. These are his staples. He also eats eggs, liver, fuzzy mice, etc, on occasion. He mostly refuses turkey...

    slight trembling after big meal?

    Oh, I have plenty of powder now, thanks. Still no more trembling episodes. The yogurt was just a treat. I don't plan on making it a regular thing. I may just give him a spoonful now and then when I have some, though.

    slight trembling after big meal?

    Greek yogurt has a negligible amount of lactose. I'm not going to sweat it as an occasional treat.

    Here is a calcium rich food we found out he loves! Yogurt!

    I don't have a tegu yet, but I am about to remedy that.

    Thought I'd post a recent pic of my stepdaughter getting to know our new pet. Went well, don't you think?

    slight trembling after big meal?

    Thanks! I will go pick some up tomorrow! I was going to go to get some today, but I ended up working 12 hours. G'Mork did have some quail eggs with shell yesterday and today, though, so hopefully it helped. he hasn't had any more trembling episodes. I only bought the spray because the pet store...

    slight trembling after big meal?

    My tegu is just over 1 month old. He has a Powersun 100 watt bulb over his basking spot which is 6-12" away from the bulb, depending where he sits (through a screen). I spray his food with Zilla calcium supplement spray for about 80% of his meals. This morning I think I over fed him, more...

    Full size enclosure for hatchling?

    I got a great price on a 6x3x2 glass and wood enclosure yesterday. At least, I think $100 dollars was a good deal. The only problem is that the glass pane making up the cage floor is cracked. I figure I can just place a piece of plywood in there to cover it up. I know with some reptiles it is a...

    G'Mork finished the majority of his shedding today and ate a massive meal. Here is a pic of him all fat and pretty.

    Here is a pic after eating a superworm, some turky concoction, and a bit of grape. Can you overfeed a hatchling? He looks like a stuffed sausage.

    I don't have a tegu yet, but I am about to remedy that.

    I did my researcho_O So far he has had superworms, eggs, and turkey meat w/ eggs(with shell), liver/gizzards, and mango. I have some dubia for him that I plan on trying today. So far he has eaten everything like a champ, right out of hand. Not sure about hand feeding a roach though. they're...
