    There are three processes of colloidal silver (sorry if they are mentioned in your post, I have heard and read a good bit about it so I just wanted to post a little something), DNA binding, oxidation...

    Just to make sure you don't go to the extreme though (and don't overdo other supplements) check your supplement for percentage or ratio labels. If you are using UVB lights, then watch out for too...

    Ok, so this is based of mammalian anatomy but it could also hold true for reptiles (I am unsure). Females that are willing to reproduce, often in the presence of a suitable mate, they will display...
  4. Not twitching, but quick full body spasm

    Ok, so my tegu has been doing this thing that is really weird lately. He will take a good breath, move around a little bit, and then (think like a little thug kid doing that jump at you thing to try...

    Thanks for the help everyone. Now that he has kind of beaten down the substrate and gotten it moved around where he wants it there isn't a sneezing problem anymore. He seems to be doing well and is...
  6. Need substrate help asap, can tell he's not liking it

    So I researched and researched trying to find a good alternative to Cypress mulch which I could only find here in Colorado for $20+ a 1 cu. ft. bag (and I need ~7 of those). I did a lot of research...

    I took my big guy back in for a checkup with his vet (she loved him so much she wanted me to come see her on her day off so I wouldn't have to pay muahaha) after his impaction from eating his shed...

    Clean out the enclosure, take the fogger out, and put in new substrate. How long were they in it while it was soggy? To upload a picture go to imageshack.us (please don't get mad at me for posting an...

    It may sound weird, but I recommend crate training. Dogs are naturally fairly clean animals (like most mammals). So for the most part, they really don't enjoy going to the bathroom in a crate. Feed...

    Thanks for the reply. I will definitely look around for some. I would like to put some on top of the soil/sand composite (I sealed my enclosure with drylock today. That stuff is great. I would still...

    Thanks guys. Just wanted to make everyone aware that it is a possibility and it is a pain to deal with for both owner and rep alike

    I am gonna call around more today. I will probably end up going with a sand/soil mixture since it is affordable, seems to hold moisture a little better (which is good in a place where 50% humidity is...

    Crazy Impaction Results!

    Alright, so I posted a little while back about my tegu that seemed to have some impaction problems. I took him to the vet and the only issue that they could find is that he was a little chunky (he...

    Thanks for the post guys I appreciate the help. I have been told about the soil/sand combo, but I am scared that if there is a crack somewhere in the enclosure it will slowly drain out (and it is...
  15. Need cypress mulch in Colorado (or another good substrate idea)

    I just got my tegu enclosure built and now need 18-21 cubic feet of cypress mulch. Unfortunately, I was unaware since I just moved out from North Carolina, that there is 0 cypress mulch to be found...

    Bite her back, it will show her who's boss ;) Reptiles are constantly replacing teeth. Mammals typically have 2 sets of teeth, but the vast majority of reptiles grow teeth nearly constantly. However,...

    I get it on the feet from my big guy. The first day I got him he bit my foot, so about 2 days later when he started the lick-a-thon on my foot it scared the crap out of me... but apparently its not...

    Also, forgot to mention, be careful with fruits too. Some of them have bad nutrient ratios in them so they can actually end up bad for the tegu (bananas being one of them).

    There are tons of benefits to fruits, and some people (similarly with D3 supplements but don't get me started on that) feel that the proper diet makes them unnecessary. My tegu rarely eats fruits but...

    See I feel like even when I had a 4x8 enclosure my tegu spent the good majority of his time in a 2x4 section of it. Not saying I would ever make one 2x4, just saying. And with multiple layers that...

    The design I have drawn out actually makes it super easy to clean and maintain. The reason I was going to have the bottom floor be 16" is because he needs about 1' of mulch, and the extra 4" would...

    And when I say layer, think of it like a floor. Think of it like a house with a basement. The first floor is going to have a place to get water, bask, and just lay out. The basement would be full of...
  23. Question about enclosure for a tegu that free roams 60-80% of the time he is awake

    Ok so I bought a tegu about 3 weeks ago that was a free roamer. Great, I love the concept. However, the idea is a little less practical I find, as my roommates aren't as fond as my 3 1/2' baby. So...

    That is awesome to hear. The handling thing will come with trust. I find that it is just as much me resisting holding/touching them as them not wanting me to do it sometimes. I used to sit in my room...
