    those unwary to varnyard

    I've been lurking and observing for a while now, and I thought I might as well add my story. I had heard nothing but praise about Varnyard when I decided last year (after months of saving and research) that I was ready to get a tegu. (Note: When I sent the first payment I didn't know anything...

    New enclosure finished!

    I'm hoping to make mine at least semi-collapsible as well, but I haven't really decided exactly how to do it yet. Care to share how you achieved it?

    Best place to put humidifier in enclosure?

    Thrift stores seem to have humidifiers fairly often, so if you've got a Goodwill or something similar near you it might be worth checking there.

    Waiting in Central Cali

    You're not! It's nice that we're finally enjoying some temperatures below triple digits, but it stinks that they're still not under 90. Boo. Someone told me the forecast for today said it was supposed to be around 95 and my first thought was "oh, it's going to be nice and cool outside today!"

    Varnyard food mixture revision

    I don't have an answer, but thanks for sharing that information! Hopefully he will get the recipe on his website updated soon so that others can know as well.

    new ingredients?

    I always love hearing about the new foods people are offering their tegus. I imagine someone standing in their kitchen, looking around at all the goodies they bought that day, and thinking proudly to themselves, "I am a master tegu chef." Looking forward to seeing the video!

    Thoughts and observations on baby tegus

    Looks like it was originally a reply in this thread, but Dana posted it as a stand-alone topic as well to help boost the exposure of the information.

    Just got the email from Varnyard!

    I know the feeling! Californian here, and I was so excited for the wait to finally be over and then BAM! Heatwave. But a delay is far better than an ill or dead tegu on my front porch. I get enough dead critters on my porch already thanks to my cats...

    My finds at the Asian Market today! Gu's were happy!!!

    When I shared one with my friends, one of them described it as tasting like "a cross between mango and onion." The one we ate didn't smell very much at all, and even then the smell wasn't unpleasant, so maybe we just got a good/bad one.

    RIP Bacardi

    I'm so sorry for your loss. It's always a hard decision to make, even when it's for the best. Thankfully you were able to provide him with a good, caring home and I'm sure he lived a happy life with you!

    Greetings from Zelda and I :)

    Welcome! I'm pretty new, too. Been lurking for several months but only started posting recently. Do you have any pictures handy? I'm sure everyone here would love to see Zelda and Macintosh!

    Unusual feeders and meats....

    No wonder they liked it; durian is delicious! Granted, I've only had it once, but I have been looking for a place to get another. And now getting food for the tegu is yet another reason for me to find a local one!

    The Amazing Spider Man

    I haven't seen it yet... but if anything, this would only motivate me to see it even more. Haha, great picture!
