Hello, I got my first red tegu last month and he went into hibernation a couple of weeks ago. I am hoping he is fat enough. I was wondering if it is ok to wake him up every couple of weeks and check on him. I cought a glimse of him a couple days ago for 2 seconds. He saw me and ran back into his...
I recently finished my outdoor enclosure for my hatchling red tegu. I was wondering what I could use as a hide. I was thinking of using a plastic shoe box but I am afraid that it will get to hot. The enclosure itself is 8'x4' and 18" tall. its basically a wooden box with chicken wire on top and...
No I the only thing I have tried on that list is the super worms with no luck. I do plan on trying everything on that list though and will let you guys know how it works out.
I spoke to Bobby today and he told me that all the reds and the black and whites will be fine outside year round here in FL. He does keep his outside too. Just incase if anyone else was wondering.
Well that's good to hear. I just want to make sure he will be able to survive the winter here in Tampa. It just scares me a little because paraguay is a little more North. Anybody know how the high contrast reds from varnyard handle a winter?
actually roaches are illegal here in FL. You can still get them from people on Kingsnake.com and stuff but its a little harder. You have to find someon that doesnt know about the law or that doesnt care. I used to have hissers and want to try the dubias. My biggest hurdle is not the law but my...
I am sure this has been asked before but what is the diffence between parguayan and argentine reds if any? Will they not be able to tollerate the cold as well? Any difference in size or color? Dispostion?
Thanks for the input. This is what I am doing now:I offer food in a dish in his own set-up and leave it in all day. the stuff I have tried is at room temp. I live in Tampa, FL and plan on keeping him outdoors like Burt did in Alabama. I dont know the temp range bc I dont have a theromometer yet...
I just picked up a week old red tegu. Ive tried a few things and so far he will only eat crickets. One of my worries is that he will not get fat enough before he goes into hibernation. Does anybody have any thoughts or experience with hibernating a fussy hatchling? Am I worried about nothing?
Ok I know the cod oil you are talking about now. The fish oil supplemnents I have tried didnt have a fishy smell to them so I figured everyone must have been talking about something different. I gave him some some "meat mix" that I picked up at the show. They were handing out free samples. This...
Hello, I just got my first tegu, a red tegu, at the national breeders expo in Daytona. He is only a week old. The breeder was feeding him crickets and right now that is the only thing he will eat. Wanted to try and get him to eat other stuff and was reading that cod oil can be irrististable to...
