Im aware of the feeding requirements for the adults. And yes i have the room for multiple 8footers. One of the reasons i am getting the babies probed is to be able to seperate them accordingly. We currently have 3 8footers and im working on a 12x5x5.
No ground meat either. Most of my gus dont want fruits though so ive stoped buying bulk food for it to go to waste.

I'm not sure where you are but I live in Canada as well and if you look hard enough tegus do show up once in a while that are not from tegutopia. There are actually still some available in Alberta. And just a note (not a bad note or a good note. Just a note!) tegutopia doesn't actually breed...
