Kimo's life and growth thread

[Max713]

Starting a new thread to document Kimo's progression through life, haven't seen a true Tegu growth progression thread, figured this would be helpful/fun. I take a lot of pictures/video's of little Kimo, expect the thread to be updated regularly.
I'll also be editing this first post with the most recent picture of Kimo periodically.

Great Idea !!

It will be fun to watch him grow ...

 

[Strange_Evil]

Great thread idea! Your enclosure just gets better and better. You have a lucky little tegu.

 

[Max713]

Thanks! Here's a better view of the enclosure as well.

very nice enclosure

 

[Guest]

what type of substrate are u using?

 

[Max713]

Thanks!

Substrate is Coco husk, course. Edible, and holds in humidity very well. Similar to cypress mulch, but easier to find and less expensive.

 

[Guest]

Looks great! He's adorable!

 

[Max713]

Who says I spoil him

Awake and hungry

Apparently, the apartment above me is getting renovated, I don't think Kimo appreciates all the banging and hammering... >: (

Very nice Gu and set up :-D .

There are guite a few tegu growth threads here by members who have been here since the beginning. They may not spend as much time on here as others so they're not updated as often. It's also hibernation season so not much to update until they wake up.

Thank you!

Really? I couldn't find any, you don't have a link by chance do you?

Beautiful Gu! Looking forward to reading / seeing more of him.

I remember when Gator was that little.

I just got off the phone with Johnny at TeguTerra (my breeder), after a 45 minute conversation. I CAN NOT say enough good things about him and his family (both human and reptile). He truly cares about what he does, and produces the most amazing lizards you can possibly come across. Cheers to Johnny!
If you have anything other than great things to say about him, I urge you to give him a call or email him, he's a great man and an even better breeder.

PM me if you need his information, I'm not sure about the forums policy on posting outside links, or contact information.
