I'd love to hear the tail story.

I'm mostly an outtie, but I have pet sitters feed in, I feed Kreacher in when I'm in a hurry, and the Oreo the Colombian can be a butt and refuse to eat outside.

Ok the tail story with the little B&W finally came off with a PIN a steady hand and warm water

I can feed outside the cage but prefer not too!!!! I KNOW I AM GOING TO GET FLAMED FOR SAYING THAT!!!!! lol

A friend of mine has a huge MALE red tegu and always feeds outside the enclosure. EVERY time he is handled he gets sooooo excited because he thinks he is going to eat. I dont think it matters if u feed in the enclosure or not they just have to be taught that YOU arent food

Glad the tail is better, it was pretty tight!

Naw, we're not flamers. Do what works for you as long as it doesn't harm your tegu, no one will harsh you.
