I like that she's very neat and doesn't throw food all over the place
yeah!
Good vid we feed our tegus better than ourselves😆
Couldn’t help but to subscribe you have amazing content and i love how well you keep your reptiles healthy!! keep up the good word
She is adorable! I Love how organized you are with her meal plan :)
This is so helpful for a new tegu owner! Thank you so much!
What a pretty girl! I can't remember when was the last time I enjoyed something on RUclips this much! Definitely keep it up! For those of us who really want a Tegu but can't have one this is the next best thing😊🐊🦎🦖
The passion in how you know her. It’s beautiful. She’s so beautiful! If I had one I’d carry it on my shoulder.
what a good girl! i love her!

So Cute😍
awesome man, thx
good stuff bro, getting my ATM soon as my local trusted reptile place has one (spring I guess), but good info, thnks
No problem! and good luck!
She is a beauty!
Good video, my red enjoys the greens and fruits more than my black too.
Tango T yeah I read it all over the internet that the difference between reds and b&w is that reds will take more vegetation.
Tango T hi do i have to Feed my tegu every day???
Wow ur a great tegu dad
i hope i get a tagu one day, cuz its my dream, thats why i watch a lot of tagu vids and tring to figure out where to find tagus and what they eat
Do you recommend standard chicken eggs with shell?
I'm just going on basic science here but being an Omnivore I think a wild Tegu would eat something almost daily. Why not split up the food or try the fruits on the days she doesn't get meat items? Glad she looks healthy and not overweight.
What insects do you feed and how many?
Never knew, but turns out I eat like a Tegu :D
You ever try papaya?
Wait but if u put the insects on the ground then won’t she might eat bad things in the carpet?
Great video, can you feed your reptiles hard boiled and raw eggs? I have a baby Savannah Monitor and I don't know which is better to feed it as a treat.
you can do both but i prefer raw
i buy safe raw( scientifically proven to be safe for animals)
Can you give me a rough estimate on your monthly cost in her food I’ve been looking into getting a tegu I’m trying to figure out food costs
Chicken hearts are super cheap. Eggs are super cheap. Breed discoid or hissing roaches and you'll eventually have an endless supply of large sized roaches. Tilapia is cheap, but you can also use catfish. They seem to enjoy bananas, and bananas contain phosphorus which is really good for tegus.
I'd say 50 dollars would more than cover a month of tegu food if you do it smart.
Joshua Powers thanks
I would love to know how you built your enclosure and what the platform is exactly? Is it just wood or stone or tile ?
my tegu has since outgrown this enclosure so i had a all pvc enclosure built for her. this one was built using plywood and the platform was built using scrap plywood from the enclosure to make a box and a piece of slate tile that just sits on top
@@iAtrocitus nice job! I liked it simplistic yet does the job! yeah i figured yours would be bigger now! Our tegu is a year 1/2 we rescued her about 6 months ago she was skin and bone but the change she has made is amazing she us awesome. We love having her around. We will subscribe and like and share !
idk if i eat this fancy
I want 1 so bad but my living situation make it difficult
Great video ! Is it an adult Tegu ?
yes she is a full grown adult
I was also wandering how much her food cost per month ? I’m thinking of adopting one in the years to come 🙂
What fruits can you give a tegu mine loves water melon and I wanna give him a variety of fruit
Dragon Den berries such as, blue berries, strawberries, raspberries, and black berries are a favorite for them. They will also take mangoes, honey dew, and cantaloupe.
Thanks for the vid which tegu is recommended red or black and white?
I would recommend Black and White Tegus, as many people who have Red Tegus say they are somewhat aggressive. If you’re a first timer with Tegus definitely go with the safest Black and White Tegu! 💕
Thanks so much I have ordered and it is a beauty thank you
Do u give him/her all of the insects and where do you buy the insects? Does he/she hibernate ?
Sorry about the questions im researching about tegus.
She gets insects once a week normally about as much as she wants to eat. And she will go through a mild brumation and I may not see her for maybe a full month. But they can live a normal lengthy life without having to go through that
@@iAtrocitus thanks
Cool tegu can u give her mice or small frogs?? What about crayfish? Back in day I knew a guy he got some baby catfish from lake to keep in is tank and fed em fish food then raw burger meat then crayfish.same guy had Burmese and ball pythons and ferrets. Use to feed the big snake 12 feet frozen rabbits.I just have cats myself
They will most likely eat all of that
Where am I how did I end up here
Thinking about getting one how big is your cage?
Ras Chan 6ftx2.5ftx2ft
She’s beautiful
Where do you get the chicken hearts?
Walmart sells em
What's your take on hand feeding?
Negative. You don't want a lizard with a jaw that powerful to associate your hand with meal time.
When are you coming back mate?
Sorry! I'll have more content out very soon! My wife and I just recently purchased a new home and its been busy with some of the repairs and work around the house. But I will say there's a lot im going to be unveiling when I make videos again 😉
@@iAtrocitus awesome man 💪 looking forward
If it’s an omnivore than shouldn’t you be feeding it some greens too?
Blake B. You could. Mine is picky about it and will take it if I hide it inside her turkey balls. But just given plain she will avoid it.
okay yeah i was just wondering because it just seemed like you weren't feeding it that many greens and i was wanting to know if that could be bad
Blake B. From what ive seen amd read black and whites don't really eat greens they like animal protein and fruits but reds do like greens
Is it wrong to eat my mom's homemade cheeseburger while watching this?
Wondering her age on this video
fuckin thing eats better than me. I get brownie points if i make kraft dinner. oh and brownies
Typical picky kid! Lol reminds me of my younger days pushing the green peas around the plate to make it look like I ate more than what I did lmao how stupid I was... btw your a very good tegu/reptile keeper! She is looking very nice, you can tell she is well taken care of! Thanks for not being responsible!
Where can you find tegus?
Marcus Trinidad try a reptile site do research on which tegu u want and there diets be sure ur prepared to buy one it is a big responsibility try backwater reptiles or under ground reptiles if your a beginner then it’s not the lizard for u
Recommended beginning reptiles is usually a bearded dragon or a Chinese water dragon but if u think ur prepared to take on this big responsibility then take it on 🥳🥳🥳
Is the turkey raw?
Yes all raw
Do more video on your blue tongue skink!Love your channel,Subscribe....
don't worry another bonus video coming up on Meeko
I can hardly wait.......
What is N/A?
Kinetto Pramudya Not Available
No whole prey my blue gets a small rat twice a week they are essential
I have to spoon feed mine because my dumb ass spoiled her 😭😭😭
Why dont you feed her any of the other days labeled N/A?
because if fed everyday she would be obese
Most reptiles don't eat as often as most mammals.
what a strange looking dog
Great selection of foods. However some of your info might be innacurate.
1. Lizards dont use a bathroom😄
2. I would like to see the so called study that reptiles cannot absorb oystershell calcium?
3 Quail eggs are more healthy than chicken eggs? Where is the proof?
4. How are raw eggs dangerous to reptiles yet raw turkey isnt?
5. Vitamin D3 can be overdosed. In fact its not really a vitamin but more a hormone and very difficult to overdose. What it does it control somewhat the uptake of calcium but by itself very difficult to overdose it.
Your trying to give good info but it needs to be accurate.
if you check my other videos i have some of my tegu going in a specific area. its not technically training more like conditioning her to go in a spot. this video is also old and care and husbandry change as new information is found. as a reptile keeper you should be able to relate. the oyster shell calcium topic was more so a thread in a forum, no real study on it i just followed the crowd. if you check my description there is a link i left that talked about raw eggs vs cooked eggs, but to save you the time and trouble of going through the whole thing here is a small part of it " (2) Raw eggs also contain an enzyme called avidin, this enzyme decreases the absorption of biotin and can lead to skin problems in reptiles. When you cook the eggs you neutralize this enzyme, thus changing the makeup of the egg." as far as vitamin d3 i found no need to keep adding it into my tegus meal as the multivitamins contains it already and the use of UVB 10.0 helps with all that already. Alot of this comes down to your own personal opinion on how to care for your tegu. Nothing i did here was technically wrong in care it was just how i perceived it and developed my own care for my animal.
