Yeah I agree with needing to see a vet for that eye. As for the tounge/tail, that happens when they're kept with another animal. Tongues get bitten off and tails that don't break off all the way fork...

It seems like it's gone downhill fast since Steve passed. :(
The channel was starting to slip already, his passing just seemed to push it over the edge.
I used to watch animal planet ALL the time,...
Aww, what a face!
My Australian shep can be a monster sometimes when it comes to potty training as well. For the most part she stays in the kitchen where it's linoleum, and I keep XL puppy pads...
That's not going to be permanent, right?
If you want to make that work for now, you're going to need to be able to cut into the top to place the lighting up there. There's not enough height to be...
I personally think that's kinda small, but it does depend on how long it hibernated for and how long after hatching it went down. You should try and find out. I only say I think it's small because it...
Gloves? Just think, though, you'd be better off getting comfortable now rather than later when it's full grown and 4'+!
Oh wow, that is pretty tiny... even if it hibernated I'd figure it would be closer to 30".
Mine was born 6-25-2010 and she's 38". She slowed down for a few months too.
Anyway, welcome! Do you...
I really wish I could find chicken necks! They're like, nonexistent down here. But I do get an amazing deal on tilapia filets. $11 for 15-23 filets! (~4lbs)
I don't have a schedule, I just mix and...
It's not by size, they normally go through it at a year old.
You'll also want to watch if he's trying to make himself look bigger around you (like arching his back when you touch him). That's a good way to tell he's uncomfortable.
Is it also hotter? That can be freaking them out if it's too hot. Otherwise, like I said it's probably just puberty. :)
Noooooo no no no. Petstore fish are very unhealthy for your lizard. They're normally filled with chemicals and whatnot, and since they're feeder fish for other fish they don't care enough about them...
A lot of tegus go through puberty and become huge brats. It'll pass. You might want to check and make sure temps and all that are good. Do they eat till they're full?
Could he have eaten a spider or an ant or something?
I have my tegus in an apartment, and while it is large, I don't see how their lives are any different than tegus that live in houses. The one that's big enough to free roam does so with no issues,...
No, you should keep the hide. That way he knows he has somewhere safe to go to right away if he gets spooked. Hamburger meat is bad, because it is WAY too fatty. Like, even extra extra lean ground...
Can you nab a video of it? That sounds really weird.
Welcome! Where's the obligatory pics? :D
Maybe he just thinks you smell pretty! hehe.
I know I get less of a reaction if I smell like myself or soaps, and not any sort of food I've eaten/handled. I'd rather be around a tegu with mint...
Do you feed them before hand? I know if I don't feed mine before I let her out she can get a little testy.
Also maybe make sure you scrub down (brush your teeth and all) before you let them out so...
Someone just made a thread that's selling babies.
Lol yeah she is a total doll. She's at an exotics place here in el paso, not sure if they ship. ;)
lol if I get stationed in Georgia I probably will. At least there I won't be in a constant battle to keep up humidity. :)
I don't see anything. :(
Yeah I know there's no way to tell for sure so I won't hold you to it. :P
I wish I got a better pic of the 1st one.
