    Enclosure

    Isnt the rule of thumb, at least 2x the lizards length? So a lizzard that gets 3-4 ft, you would need AT LEAST 6-8 ft And then i think it would be safe to say that the with of the enclosure should be half of the lenght, so 3-4ft this is verry minimum and bigger will be better.

    Sketchy

    Im an electrician, i dont see any problem with a lamp over the water, the water vapor will be verry minimal, if it cant get splashed u should be fine( a few cold drops of water on your verry hot lamp can make it burst an potentially litter everything with glass. Ive build something similar as...

    Help w blowing bulbs!

    Could depend on the light bulb, some lamps are not dimmable and will flicker when dimmed. Flickering on mercury vapor bulbs will drasticly shorten lifespan, also the uvb produced by "dimmed" lights is far less then when not dimmed, u should only dim heat light not uvb or uvb+heat. Also do not...

    Baby tegu doesnt eat enough/huffing when handling

    Well its a beauty, she doesnt look realy skinny or anything to me. I wouldnt worry about it to much. Most om them i think prefere bugs over other things when they are little. Maybe try some eggs, raw egg can be a mess so feed it on a towel or something. Not on substrate as he will wipe his...

And he states that if your taming your hatchling or juvenile you should Not give him deep substrate or any places to hide so they get...

    Rabbit pen for enclosure?

    Haha i will use them indoor. Ill Make a deep wooden box under it for the substrate and maybe modify the egg laying part of the pen (small box on the side) into some sort of pool for him maybe replace the steel wire screens for glass or plexiglass if humidity shows to be a problem
