    Can this be an argentine black and white tegu?

    That looks like a #argentine to me. He's got the white line going down the side. He looks like he might be getting ready to shed. Are you going to buy him? Perhaps he has been poorly taken care of...you just never know.

    Trying To Bond (need input folks)

    @Midwestmonster I have tried the bathtub, but she freaks out when she's in there. I'm not sure why because she loves being in her water pan. Also, I have her enclosure upstairs and when I start walking while I'm holding her and she realizes that we're moving...she really freaks out. Perhaps I'll...

    Tegu behaving funny

    What size enclosure is he/she in? What are you feeding your tegu? What type of lighting are you using? What are the ambient, hot side, and cool side temps? What is the humidity temp? Are you using a uvb light? What is the basking temp? Also, what are you using to measure your temps?

    What's wrong with his tail? Should I worry?

    I went back and re-read what you first wrote. You said there appears to be a scar and a bump after it. That wouldn't be stuck shed then. Where did you get him from?

    Eating substrate

    How old is your tegu? What type of substrate are you using? It's not good for them to eat any type of substrate because it can cause them to get an impaction. How often are you feeding him/her and where do you feed him/her? Also, what size is your enclosure?

    Trying To Bond (need input folks)

    I've had my argentine b/w tegu for almost 2 months now. I get her out of her enclosure at least 4 to 5 times a day. Sometimes I keep her out for 10 to 30 minutes or an hour. Before I put her in the larger enclosure she seemed to be bonding really well with me. There were times that she would...

    Nice... Sometimes it can be difficult to keep the humidity up inside of an aquarium. It helps to cover the lid with a towel after spraying it down. Just a thought.

    Have you tried offering him ground turkey or beef liver?
