In Reply to: Before petting him dont forget to wear gloves, please!!!!nm posted by Flavia Guimaraes on September 17, 2002 at 20:48:20:

when he's in hs cage he tail whips. when i get him out he tries to bite. i havnt been bitten but my dad got bit by him on the forearm and it bled like crazy! but there bite is NOTHING compared to my Taz :), Taz is an Argentine Black and White Tegu... 52inches and pushing 20lbs. eats over a pound of rats and chicks a day! but craps out most of it. lol

:::Blend all your greens up in a belnder using some water, and use a spaghettie strainer to get the excess water out, Also blend in some butternut squash and some cantaloupe. The cantaloupe smell might get him eating, and also mine loves butternutsquash, and sicne its all blended up hes getting it all not just the fruit and squash. Thats what i did with my rescue and now hes eating whole greens, and all of it, and all the time. For taming, just go where he is be it a room, or a cage, and just pet him. even if he puffs up and whatnot keep petting him so he knows you wont hurt him and hell eventually warm up, also when you get him eating, hand feed him his food sometimes, thats a good bonding method i think.
