I've heard of free range tegu's during the day... mine has a cage during the day and is out when I'm home. Does anybody's tegu sleep in their bed at night, though, like a cat or dog? Obviously I'm talking about adults, as babies would be likely to get squished, but does anybody have one that...
I agree with you about the tegus, lizards, tortoises, etc. that need to bask and are not able to safely do so without melanin in their skin, and about two headed animals (though these cannot be bred, they are theoretically twins that are conjoined).
Snakes on the other hand, are a bit...
Hey everybody, I've been on here a while but I don't get a chance to post too often since I'm pretty busy with school and reptiles and whatnot, but I thought I'd post pictures of a few of my reptiles. Let me know what you think!

Strange question... I've never had to deal with this since I only have snakes besides my tegu and snakes don't emit any odor.
My tegu has developed a smell over the last couple of days... a highly unpleasant one at that. Ironically, it isn't her enclosure, as once I remove her from it the...
I did a ton of research on different brands of cat food and tried a bunch of them out. Meow mix is just chunks of fish and poultry in little bite sizes. There is also practically no fat (1.8% in most varieties). I feed it about once a week, maybe twice depending on the week, and I haven't...
Dumeril's are pretty easy, and make great pets! Yours is very pretty, too... a lot of them muddy up with age and turn out looking not so great. Definitely give her space to bury herself, Dumeril's are ambush predators and will sit with only their face out of the substrate and eat whatever...
A few of the turkey companies are coming out with 99% fat free turkey. With only 1% fat, I think it is probably the lowest in fat you can get in a carnivorous diet. I bought some last week and have been using it, both in my own food and for my tegu, and it seems to work great.
While I know...
Try different fruits and vegetables, too. Mine wouldn't eat any of the stuff I was offering her, but as soon as I sliced open a blueberry so she could smell the juice inside, she started eating those. Now she'll eat those just as readily as meat. I find that if it has a lot of juice and a...
I've got a couple ball pythons and they are great snakes, and probably the best constrictor for a first snake! They can be picky eaters, so just try different things with their food. They can bite, but it doesn't hurt too badly. A big concern with balls is their shyness, which can cause them...
I'm with Ari Gold here, very into film, so some more obscure titles are among my favorites, but here are a few of mine:
-The Double Life of Veronique
-Boondock Saints
-A Clockwork Orange
-Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
-Being John Malkovitch
-The Unbearable Lightness of Being...
I've had my tegu for a little over two weeks now, and she is fantastic! I joined here right away when I got her, but alas, final exams kept me away from the internet, but now I am back and have a few questions!
First, and probably most importantly, I am worried about my tegu's defecation, or...
Hi everybody, I just got a female Argentine black and white tegu from my boyfriend of three years for Christmas! She is my first tegu, and my first lizard (unless you count the little fence lizards I used to catch when I was little), but I also have red ear slider turtles, a rosy boa, a...
