    Is peanut butter ok to feed

    Have fed my Colombian tegu mostly meat and rats with some green on the side but is it ok to give them a bit of peanut butter once in a while like with dogs?

    Argentine or Colombian

    Just got this Tegu two days ago from an individual seller. Now I’m wondering if it’s not an Argentine, but in fact a Colombian. It does have the two scales between the nostril and eyes on both sides, as well as a line down both sides of the back. The skin also feels beaded, which I heard is an...

    Temp!

    Hey guys was hoping to get a confirmation on enclosure temp. I have a basking spot of approximately 110, hot side 85-90 and a cool side of about 80(+/-2°) while night temps dropping to 75-78°, is this appropriate for a Colombian tegu? I'm aware they live on the equator so temps are fairly...

    I can't get my Columbian to eat anything except protein

    Hey folks, I'm very new to the Tegu World and I'm a little concerned about my juvenile. I received her as a rescue about a month ago, and from her size I'm guessing she's about 4 months old. She eats and sheds well, and is very docile considering how young she is. The only problem is that she...

    This is Bubba

    Hey y'all. I got a new colombian gold tegu! His name is Asriel, but I just call him Bubba. He's a bit skittish, but I dont think he's something I won't be able to handle. Hail Bubba!

    Tell me your colombian tegu success stories!

    Hi y'all. I have a gold tegu named Bubba that I got from my local small petstore a little over a week ago. He was in the petstore since he was a baby, and is about 4-5 months old now. So far I feel like I've been taking steps in the right direction to calm him down, but I get discouraged easily...
