Hello everyone!
I don't have a tegu yet but hope to have one soon. I am going to get an Argentine Black and White from TegusOnly hopefully within two weeks. I'm going to try to get one as young as possible because I won't have the funds for a large enough enclosure until the 20th of Feb. Until then I plan on keeping him/her in a 40 gallon breeder. Everything will be as it should be - heat, light, humidity, substrate, hide, etc... except it will be in a smaller tank for a week or two. I would just wait until I have the larger enclosure, but Rodney (at TegusOnly) can't guarantee that he'll have anything in stock at that time. Now for the question: I am in York Pa and was wondering if anyone might be from near here. If so, do you happen to know of anyone I could talk to either about having an enclosure built or buying one that's already made. I don't really have the tools, space, or skills to make my own and the one I found to order was almost $600 and I'm sure the shipping on that would be horrendous! So, any help or advice I might get would be greatly appreciated. I really am excited about getting a tegu, but I won't get one unless I know he will be comfortable.
