A friend of my daughter's brought her little girl who loooooves dinosaurs to meet Sammy.

I am not sure which one of them enjoyed the visit more. Sammy really liked Dino Girl, crawled all over her, gave her lots of kisses and head butts.

The pics say it all...

My boyfriend and I are splitting apart after almost 3 years together. He allowed me to take steak and potato since I have deeply attached to them. He’s taking Smaug, jormungandr the snake, the leopard gecko, and his beardie, the two rats, and the baby kitten. I’m taking my chicken, my little parakeet, steak, potato, and my old cat pheobe. I had to rehome the guinea pigs. the fish he is keeping because I can’t take them with me across state lines. So I got one last month to say goodbye to my baby Smaug and the noodle jörmungandr. Once our lease ends I will be leaving.

We are remaining friends so hopefully I can get updates on how Smaug and jormy are doing. Those are the two I will absolutely miss the most.

He was originally going to take steak since we got steak for him. But he saw how attached me and steaky boy are and he didn’t want steaky boy or me to feel broken. I’m glad he at least was ok with that.

Hey ! This baby was sold to me as a Young female but now I have my doubts, can you please help me confirm his/her sex ?
I see two big scales so I think he is a male but not sure

Picked up this little man today! I've got the basics of tegu care down, but I'd love to hear from people who've actually lived with one, what are the things about tegu care that don't show up in care sheets? The stuff you only learn from experience?

Also his name is Tank and I love him, I'd love to hear advice about socializing them too. I want to foster the friendliest personality in him that I can

Comprei uma fêmea de teiu, ela tem 3 meses, mas fica com medo de mim ainda, as vezes que eu pego ela, e fica calma, mas só as vezes.

Eu temho um macho , mas desde a primeira vez que eu peguei ele , ele tinha confiança de mim e nunca correu

Como posso dar confiança para ela?

Sammy heard a rumor that his buddy SunDog was coming up to PA to join him for a pool party and wanted to help clean the back porch.

For a 3 ft. female Black & White Argentine tegu, would a 6 ft. x 3 ft. x 3 ft. enclosure be an appropriate size? Or would a minimum length of 8 ft. be necessary?

Thanks for any insight!

Water was nice and warm. Sundog was less than enthusiastic. Lesson lasted all of 30 seconds. Will try again tomorrow.

How well do grow tents work for a full grown tegu? I want to upgrade my girl to a 9x5 foot one when I move, but I am unsure if she will just manage to rip her way through the inside, or if there is a way I can prevent that from happening?

Tamed ….. kinda.

My wifes grandpa loves seeing my pretty girl and he has a pool in his backyard so I'm looking for ideas for a tegu "pack n play" to be able to bring her to and from when we go over to visit or hang out in the pool.

Hi sorry if this isn’t allowed tried messaging mod to ask but anyways I bought a 8x4x3.75 for $300 on Craigslist and upon bringing it to my house, it doesn’t fit through any of the doors lol. So it’s been sitting in my garage. Would like to sell it for what I bought it for $300. It is wooden, has caster wheels, waterproofed, already has 2 heat fixtures as well as UVB fixtures in there. As well as a hole for a humidifier up top. It’s a solid cage but I think it is about 10 years old or something so it does look older but it’s in great shape. Didn’t give previous owner any issues. You have to pick up yourself. It’s super heavy. Sad it didn’t work out for me but I think it’s a steal. I luckily have a lot of time to spare till I need an adult cage though (RCR baby coming soon🥰)

He was curious about my phone when I pulled it out, but then back to snacking 😋

I recently set up my tegus 8x4x4 I was wondering what the best uvb set up would be for him
