had youtube muted while high as fuck and watched the whole video with ACDC playing in my headphones thinking it was just music over the lizard being a lizard. I loved it.
I LOVE most dogs definitely more than most people, but knowing I work full time I don't have the time or property a dog deserves. I will never be one of those people that locks their dog up the whole day....wtf is wrong with people living in tiny apartments with big dogs caging them?!
@@ibnyahud I wish more people thought like you. I will be moving out very soon to study in a different city and will miss my dog like crazy but can't take her with me as I won't have the time to take care of her on my own so she stays with my parents. That's why I love reptiles. I'll be taking my savannah monitor with me though and my other lizards because I can definitely rebuild their enclosures. Its great when animals can appreciate your attention but do not need it every day
Me, a tarantula owner: *Boy, I sure do love spending time with my T... watching from outside the enclosure as it sits idle in one place for hours on end. I'm so glad we have this connection...*
Does he go outside? Can he go outside? Why is his cheeks so big? Will he get bigger? Do you let him play with other big lizards? Can he do tricks? Can he grant wishes? Does he have a girlfriend? Hotel? Trivago?
That's great brother he's awesome! I've had a couple different exotic pets nothing like that though. You seem to be an awesome exotic pet owner! Way to go! Doing it right!
Boo Boo is a chill dude! I got a Savannah Monitor as a pet when I was a teenager. At the time I also had an Iguana in a separate aquarium. Anyway, she made me take it back to the pet store after a few weeks because it smelled bad even though I kept everything as clean as possible. She was right that they defiantly do smell worse than an Iguana.
Good job👍 nice too see somebody get to the point and be honest about the pros and cons also taking him out and let him wander around instead of left inside a small cage and forgotten about that is inhumane! Like a dog on a short log chain and people wonder why they get mean. Thanks for sharing.✌
Every once in a while you should put a cute little sweater on him with "hungry lizard" printed on it, take him with you to the local animal shelter, and ask them if they happen to have any small min pins availible.
Thanks for this video and the honesty! I will probably wait to purchase mine..You two have a good relationship it seems!! :) but I do take my ball python out all the time, he likes adventure
This was the video that led to me taking the plunge and adopted a baby tegu from the local rescue. 2 years of research and I got the cold feet for a year, afraid I am not ready. Seeing him coming up to you to snuggle did it for me
I've just discovered your channel.. It answered a few questions I had ..I have just taken charge of a 6 month old red tegu..Basil ..I'm spending more time with her at the moment than my kids 😊..Its hrs just trying to tame him ..Just sitting working or watching Y/T videos..Cheers for the advice
Thank you for watching. I appreciate it. Itt will be a very rewarding relationship. Not sure if you saw my video about using the bathtub to help te. I would sit in my tub with Buddy (no water, drain closed), and just read. In a confined space he was forced to walk over me and around, on top of me etc. Worked wonders. I would just read a book in the tub or play on the phone while he did that. You should try it. It's not stressful for your tegu and he'll get used to you
Cleaning up on chips is easy if you do it the easy way. Remove lizard from cage > Use hand trowel and plastic bag to remove contaminated substrate > toss in more susbtrate > toss plastic bag of contaminated substrate in garbage / compost
He is beautiful! I have a Giant Green Iguana who I slowly trained to go potty in bigger & bigger containers I put in the bathroom. Mantrid is huge & he uses under-the-bed plastic storage bins. I put warm water in bottom, he goes in it, then I slide the water/mess right into the toilet & disinfect everything w/wipes. When I first had him he went on paper in a glass aquarium. Now he has his own bedroom.
Good video and honest answer. I had a bearded dragon, way easier then Tegu😂, but the bigger they get, more problems you have. But seriously amazing species and very well handled. I must say if I would take an reptile again, then Tegu would be on my list. I really like it when they can explore in your house, or some places in house and outside the house. Who knows, but very interesting how they can behave.
Can think it be like having a hissing pissing godzilla roaming the house.... He looks beautiful love how he crawls on you he good lizard 🦎👌👍... I never looked to the minds of lizards before cool and interesting thanks 🤔👏
Wow rare footage of mark zuckerburg when he was a toddler.
Colorized
i thought he was born in a test tube?
no he was born in a ziplock
@@bananatorpedo275 he was put together in the back of a best buy
@Ryan Vickers hahahahaha kudos
I see, i see. So this an interior crocodile alligator.
murdercute88 bruhhh😂😂😂
And he drives a chevrolet movie theatre
Only ogs understand
Damn straight
Oh my fucking god XD
I'm sorry to tell you sir, that is a dragon.
wheres the wings?
It is a dragon.....a dragon like aurelion sol...
I'd have to say that's a Drake. Dragons technically have wings. Drake's don't. Or maybe he's just not showing his wings ;)
@@VincentKimihiro are you trying to suggest this smaller cousin of the Komodo Dragon isn't a dragon?
@@LB-vf2hm did u read the second part of my comment

*How to train your SCP-682*
I finally get a reference in the comment section! I’m proud of myself 😂
Hah, I also got it. Looks an awful lot like him. lol.
Who hurt him... *who hurt him???*
Well whatever you do dont let north korea nuke this guys house.
More like SCP-682-J XD
While your explaining him growing and taking care of him he's just like "dad love me give me attention you know what I'mma go look under the door now"
His face is so chubby and cute I love him🐊🐊🐊
Only male tegus have chubby cheeks
That's not chubby that's muscles in them Jaws I would hate for him to bite me LOL seems like a really nice lizard
The chitter chatter girl You are crazy too!
I bet he has the jaw power to rip off your face
@@russdog06 it kinda looks like a large gun chamber
The best part of having a pet is spending the time with it, if not dont get one.

You’re an awesome and very responsible pet owner. Thank you for the cool video.
Chuck Creasy thank you.
Chuck Creasy damn you people don't get it put that thing back in the wild. You are gross you idiots.
@@footballlegend8249 You should go back into the wild you ape!
Coley Hunter if you back you coward to where you came from, who died and left you in charge! You animal, who can you hurt with name calling punk!
Hehehe he's soooo cute.
Jason Lee they’re sweet-
I want a dog like that
no one liked your comment, kid, you're so pathetic you had to like it yourself.
I liked it
Sentoki Fuma why so triggered lady?
nah man its a bird
Same bro
Thatd be dope have a big ass dragon walkin around ya house lmao
HE’S POTTY TRAINED 😻✨
He loves you a lot you can easily tell by the way he wants your attention
Does he go outside? Can he go outside? Why is his cheeks so big? Will he get bigger? Do you let him play with other big lizards? Can he do tricks? Can he grant wishes? Does he have a girlfriend? Hotel? Trivago?
Yes
How long do they live?
Between 15-20 years when healthy
KatS Games Wow that seems decently long in lizard years but so short in human years. Now I'm 😞
Does he go to school,, what is his major, is he old enough to drive..
I like the noise his feet make when he walks
Hi
*clickity clack* Dragon coming through..
@@Griefussy lmao
Plap plap plap
Meanwhile lizard is on his smartphone typing "how to find provider with underfloor heating".
The beautiful rug pattern.. is moving😨
Tegus are by far my favorite lizard. I’ve had beardies and Savanna’s and uromastyx, none compare. Great with company, and my ferrets best friend.
Can you make a video on you tegu and ferret lmao
@@mave060602 yeah i wanna see that too I figured a tegu would just try and eat them
DANGER but if you’re supervising closely then you could probably break anything up
Jalex Ones Chanel lol one bite will be life changing for the other animal
Geckos and tegus are my favorites
Buddy's like, "Please open the door."
This video is great! It's so apparent that you love him. Thank you for sharing 😊
I'm watching a video about Godzilla and ended up watching this
Awww, he seems like a happy boy. You're a good pet owner.
What a sweetie. He loves the warm cuddles from Dad.
He’s so graceful and calm, how pleasant
Idk why im here, but I'm not complaining.
Me too, but I am loving it!
“He wasn’t very long, only about 9-10 inches long.”
99% of the guys watching this: 😔🤏🏻
*Beautiful lizard.* Could be a good pet for the people with a garden.
You have a wonderful pet! By the way you two interact it’s obvious you’ve spent lots of time with him. Good job!
Thank you. We really do have a strong bond with complete trust.
the little pink tint to his nose is the cutest thing
Once you get past the poop, it's not too bad keeping big lizards.
He's really cute. And healthy as well, evident of love and pure petness lol
Gorgeous Lizard!!! I love the tail and the skin colors!!!
I'm running away with my mom's cash and credit card to buy one
the cute cobra sleet the channel pic is Falzone that is a smart idea. 👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😏
the cute cobra sleet the channel pic is Falzone ☺☺☺
That is a columbian b&w tegu argentine tegus don't bite much at all especially captive bred ones
This is a cute Great Jagras(but being as cute and thick as Dodogama)
That's the real doggo Argentino
That's great brother he's awesome! I've had a couple different exotic pets nothing like that though. You seem to be an awesome exotic pet owner! Way to go! Doing it right!

Jit look happy... Salute!
Ngl you kinda sound like Kermit the frog and I’m really digging it
Lol
Oh god he’s seriously adorable... I love him.
Thats like having a dinosaur for a pet
if you want a real dinosaur buy a parrot
@@davidking6242 Someone didn't see Jurassic Park 1
If you want a dinosaur, go look at the modern day birds of prey called Raptors.
He is built like a tank!

That's awesome. It is a very rewarding experience if you put the time in.
Good video loved it I'm getting a male adult black&white tegu in this helps alot even with over 16 years reptile experience.
Buddy is a sweet boy.
wow...he crawled on you iu was like soooo jealous...you have done amazing work
what a amazing looking lizard
Watching B I G L I Z A RD walk around will always make me smile

Lol affectionate lizard too
I use the same rule. If theyre due for a bowel movement I wait till they have one first before letting them out. Lol
Awesome educational video man.
Good video! Thank you for posting it.
That has to be the most majestic cat that I've ever seen
I'm looking forward to getting one when I have the space. For now I have a bearded. Thinking about a corn snake.
What a cool turkey!
What a good boy!
Cleaning up on chips is easy if you do it the easy way.
Remove lizard from cage > Use hand trowel and plastic bag to remove contaminated substrate > toss in more susbtrate > toss plastic bag of contaminated substrate in garbage / compost
SUPER COOL!!! hes awesome!
Cute baby.
I think they are really cool from a distance. Lol.
i just wanna give your tegu a big hug
His cheeks are so big he is stuck with a permanent smile 😆😆😆
Cute kid!
no he full grown
He is beautiful! I have a Giant Green Iguana who I slowly trained to go potty in bigger & bigger containers I put in the bathroom. Mantrid is huge & he uses under-the-bed plastic storage bins.

Nice! Taking the time to build a relationship with these beautiful animals is very rewarding.
He is so friendly he loves you like a dog that’s awesome
Thank you for this video
He is so beautiful though I just love him
I'm kinda liking getting recommended random videos from RUclips.
big boy looks very well cared for. And yes they are very messy.
"Whats it like owning a big lizard?" Immediately sees shit on the floor
Nice vid im at the running away baby phase no biting or hissing so thats something.looking forward to the big tame phase.
How big is yours now?

Woah can't hit me with that high quality frames as soon it starts, gotta warn me before I get so zoinked that I fall out my chair
reminds me how to train your dragon, close your eyes and stretch your hand and wait for him to come to you
Can think it be like having a hissing pissing godzilla roaming the house.... He looks beautiful love how he crawls on you he good lizard 🦎👌👍... I never looked to the minds of lizards before cool and interesting thanks 🤔👏
"Watching this knowing I'll never own a Lizard." One year later: "Omg, watching old videos that led up to me owning 6.😂"
