So yeah title bought my son a golden about 12'' long. Asked for male was not confirmed. Been gone since yesterday. Guess I'll list what the site says to.

55 gallon
Coco 3" deep moist not wet
Halve log hide under basking. He used to climb onto to get closer to light
100 watt red heat light
20watt black on cool side
Temp of cage was 80 in center hot side was hot cool side was cold. 80 was the middle point
Water dish very large
Food crickets worms cooked eggs.
No powder no uvb no special all on its way atm from Amazon.

Lid was 2 pieces of plywood cut to fit rim of tank with holes cut to house light.

Now I'm assuming my son left a space open and well the tegu Pablo. Cuz he from Columbia: ) escaped.

I have had a bp escape on me before and live n return after a very long time. But will a tegu?

I live in Alaska and my house atm has no heat other than ventless propane heaters which only heat the air. The python escaped when we had a furnace as in hot pipes.
Avg house temp varies where he left solid 70degrees some parts of my house sit at 55 down to 40 (basement,second story)
I have left 2 lights out his 100watt in the colder end and the 20watt black in the warm side of the house. Food n water.

Now I own 3 pit bulls caged for now but well can't live in their cages.

Chances of finding tegu slim I have destroyed my house looking in all spots he should be. Warm dark loose for burrowing . Nothing no sign what so ever.

So really the question is.. will it come back when it needs to like the snake did or will it sit and die?
