I have a b&w tegu, who is roughly 2 years old. I got her when she was about a year old and I’ve had her over a year so I’m just assuming. She’s very obedient and I bond with her often so I’ve never had a problem getting close to her. Recently, I got a hatchling red tegu. Not sure of the gender, but I put them in the same enclosure and they got along immediately. Lately, everytime I touch my b&w, the hatchling charges are me. The hatchling doesn’t like to be touched yet, so I’m assuming it’s trying to protect my b&w. I have lately seen changes in my b&w. She doesn’t want to be touched as much, and she looks for the baby if I pick him up. It could be the weather change, but I was wondering if anyone knew about tegus bonding and being protective of one another, and why my b&w is all of a sudden being more distant from me
