I've got a little Columbian black and white tegu, and have had him for under a year. He's still a bit of a knucklehead so I have to be careful when holding him or he'll try to run everywhere at once. I've read a lot of warnings about how feisty they can get, so I try to hold him often. He seems to be comfortable with me about 70% of the time, so there's still some times where he will do nothing but squirm and scramble. He has been getting really picky about food lately, so I'll probably start a thread about that elsewhere, if I don't find similar info on here already.
I didn't realize how tiny he was when I got him (and skinny too!)
Still so tiny! He's still small now, but it's weird seeing him so much smaller.
Plumped up a bit, but part of it's probably because he's huffing
Got him to eat hardboiled eggs, but now he seems to prefer them raw
Trying to expand his food options, but of course all he really seems to care about is mice and eggs
He likes to find the highest point (and especially likes to climb around on the towels). The bathroom is the only room I feel safe letting him really explore until he gets a little bigger.
Putting on more weight!
