    Penis or prolapse?

    Thanks! It's certainly great to know he doesn't have a prolapse or anything of the sort. Now he needs to stay in the house because I do not need grandchildren at 25. Haha.

    Penis or prolapse?

    So it is officially a penis, just thought I'd post that :) I watched him do his business tonight and it came out again, noticed this time there were two so I knew exactly what it was.

    Colombian Tegus: A Comprehensive Guide

    I would like to clarify that when I mentioned we sometimes eat together, it is NOT off of the same plate lol. Just side by side at the counter...he has jumped into my food on more than one occasion though, had to throw out almost a whole plate of food quite a few times. So just a word of advice...

    Penis or prolapse?

    Oh, I can't wait. Haha. At least I'll know what it is now, and not freak out thinking he has some weird disease.

    Penis or prolapse?

    Yeah, she lost me as a client after that comment. She advertises herself as an exotic pet/reptile vet, but doesn't want to deal with actual reptiles. Oh well, it'll take some searching but I'll find a new one. It's a relief to hear that I probably just saw his manhood. Although it's a little...

    Colombian Tegus: A Comprehensive Guide

    The basics: 1) Feeding - As a juvenile, sub-adult and adult what do you feed your colombian? How often do you feed him? What type of supplements are supplied with the food you give your colombian? When he was just a month or so old, I was feeding Django a little bit of everything, testing...

    I am not a climbing frame!

    Mine does that to me ALL the time! He loves being on my head, I walk around the house wearing him as a hat most of the time. It is pretty painful though, I constantly have scratches on my chest/neck. He also likes to slide down my face, it used to be funny until his nails got sharper lol. One...

    Penis or prolapse?

    He is about 14 months and a little over 2ft. The picture is similar to what I saw, which makes me less worried. I am going to try to find a vet though just to be on the safe side. He's been to one twice before when I got him to make sure he was healthy, but she told me she didn't want to see...

    Penis or prolapse?

    After Django ate tonight, he pooped as usual but this time I noticed what I thought was a penis come out during. I've never noticed it before, but then again I don't really stare at him while he's doing his business. It was back in within a few seconds, it was kind of like a "red rocket" that a...

    Heating a custom enclosure

    I generally keep my room on the colder side at night, fan is always on. He's done well with the lighting we've had so far, has great sheds and eating habits. I'll just have to keep a close eye on the temps and his habits as well. Luckily I've had him so long I know how he normally acts. Thanks...

    Heating a custom enclosure

    We built a 6' long, 2.5' wide, 2' tall enclosure for my columbian, I was just wondering if there are better ways to heat such a large tank other than dome lights? I have a heating pad that barely covers 1/3 of the tank... a main concern is I do not want to have a million things plugged into...

    UV Lighting

    Thanks! Does the wattage matter, though? I want to make sure it reaches him, but isn't too strong.

    UV Lighting

    I'm switching my 10 month old Columbian to a bigger tank for now, I recently bought the Exo Terra Compact Top that holds 4 bulbs, and am not quite sure which bulbs to put in. The tank is about 48" long and around 21" tall. I'm afraid that if I put four 5.0 26w bulbs in I might fry him. The...
