Tegu aggression

[nikko]

Hi guys i've had my tegus tarzan & Jane since they where babies now 2.5 years old. Which they have been in an inside enclosure and now I just finished building them an outsde enclosure much bigger. I entered the enclosure and they won't let me pick them up wanting to bite me very agresively what should I do

Give them time to acclimate to their new environment. Being outside compared to inside is a whole new world for them. It is almost like starting the taming process over again.

^ I agree with james.. Give them time to get use to their new home. Some take a week, some take a month, but in the end they are always the end up being themselves.

Yup. I just gave dexter a new house. Same thing. Don't worry.

So Should I put them back or leave them there I mean can I go in the enclosure and just set there or no thanks guys I post som pics of them tonight

Were they nice and tame when living indoors? If so, they just need a little bit of time to be sure there are no predators in this new area. Give em a few days to acclimate then start sitting in the cage and they should chill out again in no time.

Yes they were nice and tamed, so I came from work earlier and sat inside for about five minute as soon as I sat next to the box where they sleep Tarzan hisses at me then he just looks at me. I'm in Bradenton Florida and there is a storm coming I'm thinking about bringing them back in I don't know if it's a good idea Thanks again for the help people trying to post pics of them but don't know how

 

[Scott Hogge]

Probably not a bad idea to bring them inside. No need to let him experience their first storm when they are already freaking out about their new house.
