    Drogon 8 months

    Oh, poor Duchess! But I bet she will mind her tongue around Jack now. My ferrets gave a similar lesson to my oldest, told him to keep some distance, please! Hope she's ok!

    Update to Hello Tegu Lovers Part 2 (Rooftop Tegu)

    I have been afraid to post about my rooftop tegu, Phuong, because I was certain if I said she made it through the many cold spells we have had, that we would have a real whammy and she would succumb to the cold. We probably have one more before it's just plain miserable summer heat without the...

    Finally got my Chacoan!

    That's so funny because boxers will lick anything to death! Boxer slime is probably better than a humidifier. Yes I had game cameras up but mysteriously they were deactivated every time she was in frame. Got great pics of every feral cat drinking out of her pond and every time I throw the dogs...

    Finally got my Chacoan!

    Super sweet tegus, really gorgeous but that Duchess is awesome! I have 2 boxers myself that are service dogs. I have a rooftop tegu that has been so shy I have only seen her tongue and her tail. She has had encounters with the dogs but has always retreated and never even hissed at them. She...

    Tegu Not Eating

    I am in no way an expert and I don't have experience with captives but tegusonly does post a video of the diet he feeds. Did you try avocado and the turkey meal that your tegu is used to eating from tegusonly? Maybe the familiar food for a while and then start mixing in the pinkies and other...

    Introductions

    Rodney is easy to communicate with through his Facebook page. Try messaging him on that. He must be really busy because he is really good at getting back to you. Just keep trying! Also, is that a ferret in your profile pic? I kept ferrets for 20 years, sadly my last died a year ago and am not...

    Tegus making it big time on SYFY

    Hello Tegu Lovers! I just happened to be almost falling asleep watching The Magicians* on SYFY tonight and lo and behold, there was a tegu front and center on the magic casting board that one of the students had pulled from thin air. Just like my Phuong! I swear she is Supernatural because she...

    My New Tegu

    Snib that's awesome that you were able to help Rodney Irwin out. He is such a helpful and knowledgable guy, he is a real asset to the Tegu world. I would be interested in the population info of S. Fl if it isn't classified. I know they are seeing quite a few in Hillsborough County, which is only...

    My New Tegu

    So the Floridian Tegus have a skinnier nose than others? That's interesting, because I have a lot of dig spots in the yard that have an extremely slender snout making them. Now I know who the culprit is! I have game cameras up, still no luck. But one day, I will spy her, I can feel it. Congrats...

    Update to Hello Tegu Lovers

    That would probably be a relief to those I constantly text with every new clue she leaves me. I could just post it and pretend people are reading it!

    Update to Hello Tegu Lovers

    So earlier this fall I posted about my invasive tegu and the problem of catching it before it gets cold. I had messaged Laura Roberts and she suggested a humane trapper. Sadly, the trappers and wildlife officials will all kill on the spot, not allowing her to be taken to any other facility. I...

    Got my first Tegu

    Nice enclosure! I bet "he" really likes it. Maybe you could put another bowl of water for him to have as an option? Just a suggestion.
