@legomygecko123 Think of it this way, the length of the cage should be twice the length of the lizard and the width of the cage should be at least the length of the lizard. so say a tegu is 4 feet long you would need an 8x4 cage,3 feet you would need an 6x3 and so on.
@Riticlol other than that he is a really healthy tegu, i no alot of people tht got them from their and there fine ,and seeing them in pet stores and the conditions there in yes! i still recomend them
well thats totally up to..but in my opinion tegus are a very intelligent lizard and alot more interesting and entertaining plus i found out that the bigger snakes tend to have a attitude with them...so my finally answer would be to go with a tegu. if you want i can give you a very good care sheet let me no
@11beardeddragon theres a couple of factors,how much your feeding them,and how humid your terrarium is if your tegu isnt realy eating and its very dry it might take a while
Great vid man! I'm thinking as long as I keep the Eco earth lightly misted it would be fine for a tegus humidity right? Just wondering cause knowledge is power lol
alright no problem ill type one up tonight and send it to you tomorrow via email..besides the hibernation question do you have anymore? ill answer them in the care sheet
@braviart yea actually in the summer i have him in a outdoor enclosure and he hibernats in the winter
@BalllPythons101 25 gallon high its a really old tank idk if thy even still make that size.you could always use a Rubbermaid bin, way cheaper

@TheLegoproductions10 my indoor is a 260 gallon reparium and is outside enclosure is a 6 x 3 x 4
@legomygecko123 for the hatchling yea,for the adults a 6 foot long by 3 foot wide by 2 or 3 foot high would be good
hey nice video! a few things i dont agree with but all in all great info for a new owner!

@TheLegoproductions10 his cage now is a 8'l *8'wide 4' high and he hibernates inside in a different cage
@SuPahMiGuElKiLlEr make sure you have a large cage for them and have time to handle everyday
@6uddy103 thanks. i got him from varnyard herps.
@11beardeddragon theres a couple of factors,how much your feeding them,and how humid your terrarium is if your tegu isnt realy eating and its very dry it might take a while
Nice. Have you been able to move him into the bigger cage yet?
@BehindTheGlassINC u should see him now hes about double his size.i suggest you get yours from varnyard herps
Actually i just bought a red Juvi from them missing one toe And 2 feet long. Hes a little scittish cause he had only been held twice.
@ras581 hey thanks for the tips man
How do you use a rubbermaid bin with UVB, and heat lamps
@DmaProductions1 no u said MDB i just didnt know if u knew what it was
@SmithRacing1999 o haha ill be more specific next time
where can i get a baby argentine tegu that would be a good place to get one at
has anyone seen that like desert snow substrate or whatever it is? if you have what animal could you use it with?
About how much would you say it cost to feed a tegu per month?
Great vid man! I'm thinking as long as I keep the Eco earth lightly misted it would be fine for a tegus humidity right? Just wondering cause knowledge is power lol
MDB is metabolic bone desiese
I thought cypress mulch had oils in it that could harm herps? is that true...
buy them from big apple herp 100 only
@legomygecko123 no problem
@SmithRacing1999 haha i no . did i say something different in the video?
I know im getting ready to buy one. 200$.... He also has a nipped tail... So im going to barter it down to 175 :D But he has all toes. so meh.
Hey can you trim their nails... i have an argentine red tegu and his nails r super sharp
You'd recommend buying them from that place, when yours was delivered with 2 toes? You have to be joking?
alright no problem ill type one up tonight and send it to you tomorrow via email..besides the hibernation question do you have anymore? ill answer them in the care sheet
how big is your big cage
would u rather have a red tailed boa or a tegu i cant decide
10.0 Is Jungle 5.0 is desert.
yea i would like a care sheet and do tegus go into hibernation and if they do can u keep them from going into hibernation ?
Good vid
I've got a 125 gal and saving my money, I figure building a tank is more fun keep us updated!
