is it better to buy them as babies or does it matter if their kinda grown

@LADYSTOMPS111920 the younger the better to tame them.

i have tamed green iguanas, and red tegus like this, so if any one wants more tips about how to tame snakes or large lizards give me a PM

i personaly dont like the cyprus mulch, the pices of wood re very large.

i like to use a mix of 50% coco husk, 25%Moss, 25% Soil.

@CemetaryGatesML true, it may be ingested and cause problems. but it is still the best choice. you can always try combinations and percentages.

@raulromeropty Fail.

@MindMorons If the lizard sees it as a prey item....yes. But you also have to worry about the dogs trying to eat it as well, or them being aggressively playful.

Will this work for other lizards? Like the Mali Uromastyx? Because mine's such a bitch to me. When I try to pet it, is swipes it's tail, hisses, and sometimes tries to bite. But this it's only 0-20 minutes after it comes out from sleeping. After that, when I set it on my bed... It pees. ._.; But soon, i'll get a baby B/G green headed Tegu. c:

@raulromeropty ok...um i may get one but we have dogs and small dogs so will that be a problem? like will it try to eat little puppies?
