Your BP probably doesn't need it, nocturnal burrow snake that he is.

You put that light on a ball and it's gonna piss him off haha. Actually, it probably wont hurt or help. you could always leave the 5.0 on your cool side and put an MVB on the warm side. Also, I'd like to mention the importance of never ever use coil UV bulbs, that tends to get overlooked alot. Also congrats on your new tegu! :]

The guy from Miami with the import tegus had some NICE reds!!! I was really impressed. They were captive bred in Argentina and then imported, about 8 mos old. Tails, toes were great, new patterns and colors, very tame. Just remember that if it was one of those and is an import, you'll want to get a fecal check done for parasites and the hibernation schedule may be reversed.

Yeahh I seen that guys tegus also I was close to buying them because they were very tamed every last one of them but then I saw some baby reds with beautiful color and one had more red then the rest of them so that's who I took
