Cool Beans!!
Well, he deserved to have a chunk taken out of his tongue for that bit of animal cruelty. I hope that he at least gets salmonella! What a bunch of morons. If I ever caught anyone doing anything...
Those are some great pics. I am sure you won't have any problem finding buyers for such good looking babies.
I occasionally feed my tegu with a pair of long metal tongs like the above posts suggests. Since I feed thawed, frozen mice it helps to move the mouse around a bit for her sometimes to trigger her...
LOL, what is with tokay geckos? My nephew's will jump across the cage to try and bite him when he comes in to feed it. They are SO beautiful and fun to watch climb the walls, but such aholes. I...
I would not recommend a baby beardie for small children as they are quite flighty and jumpy. Also babies can go downhill very quickly and die if you don't have things just right, so why the worry...
IDK about the iguana, but I do have a beardie. They eat allot like a tegu. Fruit, veggie and you can feed most bugs. No mice or meats though. There is a great nutrition website for beardies @...
He looks like he is enjoying his own personal water fountain. So Cute!!
Pictures, we like those!! Welcome.
They parents are gorgeous, I am sure that you are going to have wonderful looking hatchlings.
It's funny how they have their quirks of what sets them off. Was it a sparrow? She probably could have eaten it but maybe if freaked her out because it was something new and they fly in quickly and...
Oh my, that is a really dirty face mom! Sometimes I have to break out the baby toothbrush to scrub the mess Scorch gets on her from eating. Beardies are SUCH messy eaters. LOL I will have to show...
I just love the look in her eye in the shot with her tongue out. She looks like she is saying "I know I'm gorgeous. Go ahead and take as many pictures as you want."
Congrats on your tegu. I have an Argentinian but there are many people on here with Colombians who say that they can be tamed quite well. If you are not currently having a problem handling him then...
Yes, we need pics of eggs and a countdown calendar for expected hatch time!
Good for you. I have had my house for sale and most people are real cool when they see my reptiles but a couple have said stupid things like Ew or Yuck! I just tell them if they are bothered by my...
LOL, it is true she doesn't particularly trust the hubby. He holds her the least because he is too busy hogging Scorch, so he doesn't pay her much mind. I am getting ready to suspend his Toki...
Isn't that true! It was a second showing too, so it would have been a real PITA to have something wrong.
Ok, so I woke up this morning to my husband screaming babble dee gook downstairs. Toki has freaked out trying to get out of her blanket and when he went to help her she jumped out of her viv. Then,...
If he doesn't like to be picked up but wants out of the cage you can try making a ramp out of wood for him to climb out, or even better, place your hand and arm flat like a ramp with a hoodie on and...
Sounds like daily progress. Before you know it he'll be a darling and you will have a hard time remembering all the struggle. lol
I think your pretty modest. That was a very thorough explanation. Besides, an actual herpetologist probably would have used words none of us would understand and leave a newbie completely confused. ...
I have taken Scorch with me just about everywhere, grocery shopping, target, the beach on vacation, because she is small enough to carry. My only concern was dogs. But now that she has a stroller...
I think she is just going by the general look. There are other ways to tell if you are very experienced with tegus as she is. Such as the coloring and the shape of the head. I am just giving you...
count scales between the nose and eye. Columbian's have one scale and Argentinian's have two. This is a pic of my Argentinian with the area you should look at circled....
