Just another pic update on Riley my argentine black and white tegu. He is now 31" long and growing. Today was a pretty big milestone in his life considering he had his first veggies today :eek:. It was some yellow squash. He was skeptical at first but he soon took to it like he would anything else. Hopefully, I can feed him alot more veggie and fruit. This is important because not all argentine black and white tegus take to fruit and vegetables and I feel lucky mines does.

He looks great and nice job getting him on veggies. I can't wait to see him in his new enclosure. Seeing him makes me so anxious, I'll be getting my hatchling from Bobby Hill in around a week.
 
@kevinfleming21-Thanks! When he grows his jowels then there will really be something to pinch ;).

@polish-thanks!

@Bogwoodbruce-Thanks you! He has quite a bit of color on him. Black, white, orange, and even some green.

@Citrinellus-Thanks for the comment. I have ordered the supplies for his door and all I need now is some glass. The cage should be up and running by next week. Be sure to check for updates on my cage building thread. I hear you on the waiting bit. I remeber waiting for that package to come. It will be all so worth it to see that skinny green lizard crawl out that box. Be carfull they will quickly grow on you. I should post a pic of riley when he was small. He looked so scrawny compared to today.

@baxtor_lex-Thanks. He is just a subadult. He will more than likely put on another 1' or more and is going to gain alot more weight.
