    I've switched to Cypress Mulch...

    I have to say, I love it a LOT more than coconut husk! And so does Siggy :mrgreen: . He's having so much fun burrowing right now and exploring. I think it was a good choice :) I'm happy, He's happy. Just had to share :grno

    What substrate are you using?

    Hmmmm... Im thinking a soil mix maybe.. something thats great for digging, but still, I know soils not going to be easy to get off of him when I take him out everyday :doh BAAHhhh... I can't decide.

    What substrate are you using?

    I've been using Coconut Husk, but it always seems to be dusty, even if I spray it once a day. It's coating my room in a brown dust, and my tegu sneezes from it every once and a while. Otherwise it's really great and like it, but I think I want to change. What do you use, and how do you feel...

    Halarious Sunbathing

    Don't they keep saying that for all the lights? Seems like everytime I look up different lights there's a comment about their eyesight. Is it because the red lights are on all the time? as apposed to timing "white ones" ??

    Halarious Sunbathing

    Hahaha, I agree! I wanted to sneak a shot glass or beer bottle by his side but because of the way my lid is set up I know it would have disturbed him. Maybe I can get him next time... :mrgreen: :bud

    Boy or Girl

    I'd say it's a girl as well. However I didn't know until my Tegu was 3ft long as well. I was convinced he was a male, but everyone said he looked too much like a female... but that there was a very small chance he may still turn out to be male. Then one day I had "her" out to eat and when...

    Feeding Dead Mice

    I'm not sure whether you feed eggs raw or cooked to ur lizard, I feed Siggy both, but If he eats raw egg, try dunking the mouse in egg and see if that helps... I think the egg is lless likely to be licked than chicken oops and by chicken I ment turkey

    potty training b/w tegu`s

    I'm curious, and might as well post it here, Has anyone tried to litter-train their Tegu with a litterbox?? I want to do this with Siggy sometime, she knows where she use to poop so I think it would be easy for her. Has anyone actually done it? It would be so nice to just have them walk...
