I love when they eat a mouse and swallow it but the tail and feet stick out of their mouth for a while. icon_smile.gif

In my opinion nothing quite compares to having your Tegu wanting to actually spend time with you.
Be patient because when it happens you'll be smiling from ear to ear. icon_lol.gif

Do you have any simple ideas I can use to help him to adjust to me? i put a peice of my clothing on top of his hide to get him accustomed to my smell but is there anything else I can do to make him more frindly towards me in the long run?

don't rush it. after time with seeing u in & out of the cage he'll come around. i noticed it's easier when u let 'em come to u & not just grab 'em outta the cage.
