    So... Saphee is around 14 months old now and she's gone from being 12 inches long and 20 grams to a whopping 3 feet and close to 3 lbs in that time. She eats between 5-6 days a week.

    I try my best tokeep Saphee on her toes when it comes to her food options so as to keep her healthy and my wallet from crying any more than it already does and while I was browsing through my fridge and freezer, I found what was basically a bologna sausage of cat food made by Freshpet. Would...

    Tegu stole my lunch

    So yesterday I was sitting in the living room letting my girl, Saphee free roam for a little. While she was free roaming I was eating a bologna sandwich and out of no where she launched herself at me and grabbed the meat out of my sandwich. It was unexpected since she had just eaten earlier in...

    Backpacks/bags to travel with Blue Tegus?

    Mine is small enough to just chill in the hood of my sweater with a little harness on her. Later i plan on getting a rolling cart or a stroller to carry her if needed, but my girl will probably only take occasional visits to petco or the vet.

    Tegu puberty??

    I think Saphee (young female Argentine Blue Tegu) is going into tegu puberty now... When I got her in August 2020 she was 20 grams and 12 inches and now she is over 1.2 lbs and at least 2 feet long. I've noticed signs of heightened food aggression for the past few days and I think she is getting...

    My current enclosure

    Saphee has now moved into her adult enclosure and her behavior is a bit off from what it was when she was living in a 50 gallon tank. I think its due to heating or something because she is hiding alot more than before and refuses to explore like she did before. I am using a 120w and a 50w...

    New lighting and heating for my adult enclosure

    Well Saphee has been growing like a weed and she is getting close to the point where I need to move her into the 6x3 grow tent enclosure I have for her. My concern is lighting and heating though. What's the typical lamp setup for the adult enclosure? I want to get bar lights so I can get her...

    premade meals

    What's wrong with frozen pinkies? I cant imagine that they are too bad for a growing tegu.
