do you mind if i ask where you got her from? but I'm jealous! you got your 2012 before me!

Just some standard advice you should follow, especially since it has health issues apparently, you always should let the animal adjust for a few days to a week. Especially since it's a young animal that clearly has a past of marginal care or trauma depending on the cause of loss of toes. Also, if she's not eating again you should not be handling her. And when a young animal is merely sitting there in your lap the first day you get it, it could definitely be a negative sign.

ok so today she looks a little better moving around more and her eye isnt watering anymore but heatherN i dont know where from but they obviously didnt take good care of her because of the toes being gone except a few but i want to make her life way better from this point

 

[TegusRawsome80]

Where did you buy her from?

 

[monstruo-the-tegu]

i got her from this petshop on the boulevard and they do like if the animal isnt anywhere they will find one get it for u (thats how i got monstruo lol) but i guess they didnt check were they got her
P.S the people who own the store are family friends so i dont think they meant to get a tegu without the greatest help

 

[TegusRawsome80]

Okay, I really have no idea what that meant but I'm assuming they ordered one online for you lol.

 

[monstruo-the-tegu]

yep i just have bad grammer

 

[tommyboy]
