    Should I fast my tegu?

    I agree, the jowls make it appear to be a male! My female most definitely does not have big jowls even when she is chunky!

    HELP! My tegu went wild!

    Help! Tegu will not come inside!

    So we took my tegu Sugar (Argentine black and white) outside, and she won’t come in now. As in whenever we get close to her she runs away super fast or lashes at us trying to bite us. We gave her a small rat and she ate it but still is being very aggressive so I was wondering what should we do...
