Howdy my name is Brianna and I am a student at Texas A&M! I just purchased my first Tegu ever from Johnny at Tegu Terra! I am getting an Argentine B&W Female! I am so excited and can not wait for her to arrive next week! Any advice for a new Tegu owner? I have a 55 gallon currently for her (shes about 2 months old) and was planning on using a combo of coca husk, eco earth, reptibark, and some sphagnum moss for substrate. How long will a 55 gallon last her? In the tank I have two hides, a big water dish, a tree limb, and a waterfall as well as a UVB/heat fixture on top. I have eggs, crickets, and a repashy product called meat pie along with some fruit/veggies for her to eat. I am planning on giving her a big variety of options for food so I may find some more options like turkey, fish, or mealworms. Just wondering if anyone has any advice that they wish they would have known when they got their first Tegu or any suggestions in general! I would also love name suggestions
