    DIY or custom-made?

    Build it how you want it. Frame it paint it wall it. There are forums of other peoples progress building enclosures some better than others. As far as custom made I looked around and a far as an adult enclosure I've yet to see one less than a grand. Same if you get a large plastic and pvc...

    DIY or custom-made?

    Build one that's my suggestion. I built an 8x4x2 plywood plexiglass windows waterproof less than 150$ excluding lights (not fixtures) and I am by no means a carpenter just a little handy.

    building my new argentine tegu the best tegu cage ever

    Swim is a maybe some do, climb they will a little but will stop with age most of the time. Also be careful with a pond more than likely your tegu will fill it with dirt tear down your decorations. Same with plants real and fake lol your tegu will wind up decorating it the way he/she wants too lol

    I FINALLY GOT MY ARGENTINE BLACK AND WHITE TEGU

    Hmmm, too small to tell in my opinion... I would have to say female as a wild guess but can't tell. Mine are 3' long and its still hard to tell (they both have grown well and are yearlings)

    Is my tegu going into hibernation??

    It can be an import. most imports are CB problem being and what's sad is they come from leather farms in south America. If you got it in may which basically means its egg was laid February or march at the earliest. There's a post from Bobby on his website about being cautious about buying baby...

    Is my tegu going into hibernation??

    What are your temps? How old is your gu where did you get your gu. It seems a little early for hibernation, if its a baby and you got it in may there's a chance its an import and its cycles are all out of wack.

    How much do you feed a Argentine Black and White?

    Babies should eat to their hearts content. After about a year about one good sized meal a day and after 2-3 years 3-4 days a week. They will east you out of house and hinge if you let them lol

    Varnyard 2012 Reds

    Be careful with underground I have ordered two tegus from them and never had a "smooth experience" with them. One instance they messed up the order and wound up chasing a fed ex truck til 8 at night. The other instance the tegu came in bad shape. I've had one dealing with Bobby and it went well...
