    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This is a picture of a healthy tegu stool. Unlike monitors they have a firmer stool.

The yellow is the urates, these can also be whitish in color as well, and the brown is feces. The two white strings are the sperm plugs. These can also be very stringy and are often confused with parasitic worms. I have many people contacting me each spring thinking that their tegu has worms, and I wanted to share this with everyone. Also note, the sperm plugs are only found in adult male tegus feces.

This is just a closer look at the plugs.

Can't have the TeGU, without the GU, lolololol :rofl:
 
I have a very young Argentine black and white tegu. About 4-6 weeks old, I would guess. Just got him/her yesterday and had the first bowel movement today. Could it already be sperm plugs?
