    UV bulbs are a waste of money?

    When I look up monitors I ALWAYS here that UV bulbs are useless and are a waste of money! I see things like, "a halogen flood light gives all the UV they need" or "there food gives them the nutrients" Although tegus and monitors are Very distantly related, they are very similar. Do Tegus...

    new hybrids coming soon...

    Grendel, many dog breeds have been created by breeding different breeds together. Breeds of fish have been created through hybridization of different species. Also in birds. Recessive genes CAN be passed to hybrid offspring, its not a maybe. Its a known fact. Its only 100% het albino if one of...

    is it possible to potty train a tegu?

    I always here you can't but I think it might be because people don't try. Iguanas can be potty trained so why not tegus? I've seen Iguanas trained to climb up a ramp to the toilet and go there. I don't know how you'd do that though lol

    Do Tegus need to hibernate there first year?

    I was following it until you said genetic complications.I only have a very basic knowledge of genetics but I know for a fact that skipping hibernation won't give the tegu "genetic complications", It might go against what there genetically designed to do. But it won't effect its genetics. Maybe I...

    Is it possible to cross columbians and argentines?

    Breed a 50/50 cow bison hybrid to a 75/25 Cow bison hybrid and there you go. This has been found to produce an animal with the most desirable traits. Beefalo is considered a pure cow breed(I don't know why though, it doesn't matter which breed of cow was used in the hybrid either). Any cow bison...

    Is it possible to cross columbians and argentines?

    Maybe if You were breeding a male colombian to a Argentine you could rub a female Colombians shed on the argentine. The method works on snakes because snakes rely more on smell, I don't know about tegus. BTW a beefalo is 3/8 bison or less :P
