Hey guys. Right now I have my new tegu "Oreo" in a 20 gallon tank. She is 15 1/2 inches long, but unsure of her age. I want to build her a new enclosure sometime and right now I have a 4x8 sheet of melamine and a full sheet of plexi glass. I was wondering what size enclosure I should build? I don't know if I should build a small one with the material I have, or if I should just wait until spring (when she starts to really grow) and buy more melamine to make a full size enclosure for when she is an adult.
Also, on a side note, I noticed that she only poops when she is in her feeding tank, pretty much right when she is done eating. It is nice because its easy to clean and I can clearly see where it is, but I don't want to get her into the habit of doing this because when she gets bigger and I start feeding her in the kitchen for example, she will want to crap all over the floor. Any suggestions on potty training tegus??
