This may be a dumb question but I'm a first time tegu owner and a bit paranoid. My tegu has a huge basking rock in his cage. He has, of course, burrowed underneath it extensively.
Do I need to worry about him digging too much and getting crushed or are they smart enough not to over-dig? The stone is quite heavy - not sure how I didn't anticipate him getting under it though .
I'm considering digging up the area, placing cinder-blocks under the stone and reburying everything. I've only had him a week though and I don't want to traumatize him by destroying his tunnels. It just seems like he digs more and more everyday and I couldn't deal with him getting hurt.
