He's just getting used to things.. It's rough taking that big move. Give him
A couple weeks you'll see him
More and more. Good luck with zeus

ya he came out a lil while ago and now its a game of every time i move in the room he runs back in and then hel slowly peek out at me and now hes sitting there with his head out watching me play xbox

They are pretty goofy creatures. Sit there for as long as possible daily so he gets used to seeing you. I found the t shirt trick worked too for me

My gold has been home.for almost 2 weeks. He still spends most of his time hiding. Yesterday was his best so far. Spent hours out. He even let us know that he wanted out if his tank. He got his way too.

My guys basked from day one. They only move when I touch more then just the tip of their tail.

Taco has odd sleep patterns. When I first got him, he usually pulled a good 12pm-10pm shift (rather like myself), which worked out perfectly. Before going into hibernation he would usually only be awake for a few hours each day (and often those hours would be during my classes, so I wouldn't see him much). Then out of hibernation, he went back to a 12-8 or something. In these past few months (during his puberty) he wakes up around 11 and never stays up past 6-7. Today, for some strange reason, he was up until 10:30. I can't figure out why.

Those odd sleeping irregularities aside, I am very, very happy that he isn't a nocturnal lizard. I had a red-eye crocodile skink. Talk about an underwhelming experience....

Mine usually is alseep by 6 or 7 and is up and basking when I get home at 8 in the morning and takes naps all throughout the day, she was fine with me the first 3 days, started the t shirt trick and started sleeping on the floor a foot or two from her tank and I have been seeing amazing results

ya its been ONE Day and hes really grown to me my cage is in my room and im sitting in front of it all day either on my computer watching tv or playing xbox my tv's on top of his cage and i sit rate in front of him today he showed no sign of fear when i move as long as i leave the cage closed so i guess he understands hes safe in there and when i open he sort of runs but stops and looks at me while i just sit there just to try it lol

I had a question about my tegus sleep pattern, is it okay for him to go to bed at 3 PM and then wake up and 6 or 7 AM, or should i be worried he is going to bed so early. He has been doing this for 4 days straight so it isnt just a random one day thing.
