    New Gu!! Need some opinions

    Thanks VERY much for the fast responses, I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while I've been so incredibly busy. From what I know he hibernated one year only, and is eating just fine. I have been giving him beef liver dusted with calcium and cod liver oil, but I still have to set up a vet...

    New Gu!! Need some opinions

    Hi guys! It's been a while since I posted, my lil gu from bobby that I got in April is doing fantastic! But I'm excited to report that I now own a 2nd tegu that I adopted from craigslist! However when I brought the little guy home I noticed that he/she seems to have mbd or is just having...

    My first gu!!!

    thanks a lot I was looking for that care sheet! Do you recommend that I switch the bulb or just lift it higher from the ground? For now I lifted it farther away, I just gotta remeasure the temps.

    My first gu!!!

    Thanks everyone! I would keep him in a smaller cage but I actually don't have one. I hope our tegus are from the same clutch, that would be really cute to know he has siblings on this board. He is still sleeping everyday, I tried to give him some egg but he only ate a tiny bit before going back...

    Thanks! My temp gun should be here soon, then I'll know exactly, but I'm going to get a cheap thermometer from walmart now to get a general idea. I'll let you guys know what it says.

    :app Thank you everyone!! If I get it i'll post pictures. The person hasn't emailed me back yet, so I'm just waiting at this point. I'll check this little guy out in person before I commit though... you never know if someone just used that picture because it was "a tegu".

    Best kind of monitor lizard as pet?

    To the original poster, all I can say is that when investing in a varanid look at it as an animal first and foremost. Although those species in particular can be well acclimated to human contact, always be prepared for an animal that refuses it. Don't plan on purchasing and raising a...

    What do you think...

    yes, I got the same response at thetegu.com and I have decided not to purchase one of those. It makes me wonder why the tails are nipped in the first place, hmmm.

    Looking to adopt!

    Hi! I'm new here, so correct me if this is in the wrong spot. I was wondering about adopting a young tegu. I have been doing research for months and I am completely ready for a tegu, particularly a black and white. I have a 4 foot long by 2 feet wide enclosure already set up, and frozen mice...
