Tegu Training

I bathe them once a week in plain warm water. If they are dirty, soak them in clean warm water--after geting any surface debris off---and if they poop rinse and refill the tub. Let then soak for up to i/2 hour if possible. Then take them out in a clean towel, dry off gently and rub a small amount of GS oil on. This will instantly give him the look (and feel) of being at the spa all day
And that smell should be gone too .

ok 2 more questions lol, where do i get grapeseed oil, and can regular soap hurt them? or is it ok to wash them with soap and water and then let them soak?

At one time you had to go to the healthfood store for GS oil but now they sell it at most supermarkets.
I would never wash any reptile with soap.

ok thanks again, im going to get some pics up of her, she's beautiful and doing great, she just ate today and i bought a leash and harness for her, i had to work with it a little but it fits good and she has room for her legs to move around as well as breathe without any difficulty, i'll check today for some GS oil at the Target i work at, do you know by any chance if Petco sells reptiles? they're opening a petco next to my house soon and i was just wondering if you have one by you and if they carry herps, well anyway thanks again!

petco was selling reptiles in NY when I lived there but rescently I have relocated so I'm not sure what goes on now with all the problems they have had in the past.
