    Default Trimming Nails...

    So yeah my tegus nails were extremely long... luckily enough he was content with sittin in my hand and he let me cut all of em.

    however I know that nails that grow too long can cause problems like twisting their fingers and stuff, and I definitely don't want that. do you think theres anything I can put in the cage that will file their nails efficiently?

    thanks

    You can put a rock into the enclosure that he can climb on.That will keep his nails filed down.This is a rock that I keep in one of my enclosure for my Tegus.
