    Is this Normal for a tail to look?

    It was better soon after that shed. May have been a stuck one that I couldn't see or something.

    Is this Normal for a tail to look?

    During a bathtub taming session with Mori (which went great, first time I could hold them without them struggling and I think they're finally calming down), I noticed that their tail is weird in a way. It's full length, after the base quarter or so, there's a spot where the tail suddenly gets a...

    How to get your child to eat their veggies?

    Mori has eaten a few blueberries and blackberries, but only by tearing the berries in half so that they can taste the juice. But veggies are still no-goes

    How to get your child to eat their veggies?

    I know that Tegus eat meat and plant matter, but how do you introduce the veggies and fruit to them to get them to actually eat it? I have a 1.5 to 2 month old (or however old a 16-18inch tegu is) Argentine Red Tegu named Mori. I don't know if it is simply too soon to try the veggies or what.

    Possible Problem with a Foot??

    Knowing Goliath and his insane chases with crickets, it was probably just him hitting it during the time to shed. There was no blood from what I saw, so it wasn't that bad. I've been cleaning it and keeping debris from touching it as much as I'm able to. He's just a hyper baby when he's on the hunt.

    Possible Problem with a Foot??

    No lights are anywhere capable for him to get close to, but it is most likely just a shedding thing as one of his hands is showing similar type scales. It's already healing where the mark is on his foot.

    Possible Problem with a Foot??

    Sorry that my first post is like this and that it's kind of a read. I got home tonight from work to turn off all of Goliath's lights except for his nightime bulb and to wetten the substrate to help with the humidity and went to wake up Goliath because he doesn't like the spray bottle when its...

    First Time Tegu Owner here.... Hi!

    Hi, Saurus here with my first ever Tegu, a B&W named Goliath. He is maybe at the oldest a month old (measured him yesterday at 12.5 inches) and is seeming to be a pretty chill, ravenous little baby. He currently is in a 40 gal, but me and my dad are planning on making his adult tank by around...
