so today i took this picture before i fed him....and he is getting huge but the funniest thing, when they say to tong train your tegu i mean yogi is really tong traind....i put him in his feeding bin today and put crikets in with him.....when i put them in he did get thier sent with the jacobsins organ but did not touch them for about half a hour, so i dicied to take out the tongs but then when i grabbed one with the tongs, he went right at it and only ate them one by one only in the grasps of the tongs itwas pretty funny and cant wait for his buddy to be home.

so todays the day yogis brother is here...hes a all american from bobby and i still need to find the birth date but hes just a hatchling around the same age as yogi and i want to find out if they are related since i heard of some one with a extreme and a all american that were half sibblings as well as possibly find out the parents...if anyone knows the age if thiers was born in the same clutch please letme know...but hes finally here i finally saw what bobby ment with thier fetures as the extremes have a more rounded mouth and the all americans have more of a snout and more of a darker color as babies than the extremes but i love both

so he was actuly more curious than yogi when i first got him but what kinda scared me is yogi is way bigger than him even though thier around the same age and i didnt want him to hurt him so since thier didnt seem to be a thread on how to put two tegus togther for the first time i put them in a bin and let them get used to eachothers sent for abouta half hour, you can see yogis alot bigger.

and yogi was more affraid of him than the little guy affraid of him....so it went well tho and they started sleeping on eachother lol and after a while i put them in thier encloser and they both actuly just ate...surprised kinda that the little guy ate but he ate a pinky and yogi ate a rat pup and now thier just basking.....and the little guy wont even run from me....it seems he copies whatever yogi does and even followed him around his encloser for a hour......so i plan to leave the little gu alone for a week and let him see how i operate with yogi....seeing how smart he is, coming to the tongs to get food just like i did with yogi before i feed him

IMG_20120814_162343.jpg

So a update on my two boys thier doing grate....and my little no name gu stil trying to find a good name for him is great, yogis goten to really like him and it seems thier enceparable now, they even sleep in the same hide now, and i think since he copys yogi is why hes less affraid of me....on day two i fed yogi on his tongs he did the same and when i took yogi out he waited for him at the front by the opening until i put yogi back. Il do a better pic and update tomorow. But i just had to say how i love wwhen thier light cuts off they both go in ther hide and sleep together.

If the AA still needs a name, you should name him "Frog." There is an episode of MacGyver with a dog named Frog, and everyone loves it. They are always like, "So the dog is named Frog?"

Yogi's and boo boo's Thread

I use a zoo med mecury vapor buld....and they bask everywere with it.....and to everyone i finnaly got a name for little no name, it is going to be boo-boo, and yogi.....so this will be both of thier offical thread.....and as for a update they have been doing very well...yogi and i seem to have that special bond were i come home and he runs up to the glass to see whats new for today, and now allows me 100 percent to take him out of his encloser with no problem, and as for boo boo he must be copieing yogi cause hes the tamest babie gu ive seen after a week of letting him get ised to his home he alowes me to pick him up and handal and not run away:)
