Crickets are kind of a staple food .I used tongs to not have to touch them. I just had one in my shirt and I'm glad I was alone cuz that shirt flew across the room. Good luck. You can do it.
I have to admit I used a glove to get him out .It wasn't a leather falcon glove like my right hand wanted just a fabric flowery garden glove and I was able to hold him more confidently on the way to the reptarium. I felt guilty for using the glove at first but after doing it I'm ok with it .He's...
If petco really told all that is required for some of these animals people not buy them. I think a FACT sheet with a mandatory equipment list should be given. So many of these animals probably don't make it to a year. It's sad.
I went through this too. I had a male and female and had to separate them and then we were juggling lights and they got MBD the female it took her down so fast and had to have her put down but the male we saved . I took him outside in the sun repeatedly during the day to get natural sunlight and...
So handling Seymore went better than expected and he got to see his new reptarium and his trees it's 265 gallon looks like Gilligan's island in there. I've been looking at Tegu s on line. So Seymore is less scary now. Lol
I got the reptarium prepared and my supplies together I figured out a strategy that nobody should get bit. What I didn't plan for is my roommate bar b Qing next to the reptarium I can't take Seymore out there he'll think he's gonna be dinner. By midnight his house and flood will be under control...
This is a Gold Tegu he's at a pet store .This level of lizard should not be at a pet store I feel. His enclosure is way too small and all the people and traffic is too much. I'm so sad for him. It's like setting him up for the worst. And even with the basic info given at the time of his purchase...
I've been giving seymore salad since I found out he could have certain veggies and fruits. He loves greens. He's much bigger than Mr.Nixon though. I fed the same way you are for 7 months or so .
I watched a video of a chameleon standing on his owners finger popping bubbles it was adorable. My Seymore doesn't like being handled at all. He gets all polka dotted up . He's very intimidating at times.
You guys are taking me back to pain town. Had mine out in 1984. I gave birth drug free 3 times was a piece of cake compared to those. Your a trooper. They don't make an imogi bad enough for this milestone in life. Congrats use your heating pad. I may light a candle for you . Lol
