Tegu Time

Meet Kreature, our foster Argentinian black & white tegu. I'm a little gun-shy with big lizards (thanks to all my experiences with iguanas, Savannahs, Nile monitors, etc. so we are letting him out to explore on his own terms.

My boys LOVE Kreature! They think he's fantastic. My dog Teddy wants to kiss him and smell him. My dog Belle thinks he will murder her. I think he's cool but I'm hesitant to have a big lizard again. I'm really not into biting anymore. Crazy, huh? ;)

My Babies came Back!

My friend B fostered my two Torty babies for the last couple months. They came back today so they can spend as much of the summer as possible out in my backyard. 

They both grew!! It's so exciting to see. 

Before they left-- 

Today- 

On Feb 1st, T-bear, the sulcata, was 108 grams. Today he is 174. 

Half Pint, the red foot, was 136 grams on 2/1. Today he's 162.

Being on the grass in the sun this summer is going to help both of them grow big & strong. :)
