I got a red from bobby a couple days ago, he looks beautiful and everything but hes really wild!
Theres no way i can pick him up without 'fighting' him yet so i have been cage feeding him. I know i am not suppose to be fighting him to grab him so how do i successfully feed him in another tank if i can't pick him up?
I have tried a few taming tactics but none of them have really worked yet.
The tegu is a juvi about 2 feet long including the tail.
The good news is i could keep my hand in his tank without him running to his hide and he even came up to it and started licking it and checking it out. The bad news is i tried leaving my hand in the tank for a second time and he bit my finger and drew a little blood.
Next tactic will be leaving my shirt in his tank, ill see how that goes.
Thanks.
