Errr not so sure what to say to that. Looks a bit cruel. And are shavings the best thing to submerge a herp into. I mean how would you like it? Not to mention the problems with dust inhulation.

Hey James
I am sure I believe it was a tegu was all right during the filming of the video, I kind of thought it was pretty funny LOL!
But all kidding aside depending on what shaving they had in the bag determines on the dust they make shaving now mostly dust free and it would take time to build up for the lizard to have any health problems from it.

NOTE: NO TEGU'S WERE HURT DURING THE FILMING OF THIS MOVIE CLIP.
The shavings that were left in the room for a while were Pine shavings. The tegu is not allowed to be in the bag, but during the cleaning of the mice and rats we need the shavings to be handy so we can change their bedding.
Casper is one of the sneakiest red tegu's around. For his bulk you will never hear him sneak up on you, let alone hear him climb into that bag. The only way we know he gets in there is by picking up the bag.
Casper has the run of that tegu/snake room and we let he go anywhere he wants to, as long as it's not dangerous to him. He does have his own dog house to use but prefers other spots most of the time. Including climbing the 3' gate that blocks him from the mice and rat containers. He climbs very well and we usually find him inside the rat enclosure.
We refer to him as the brat and he lives up to his reputation.

What a silly one! U should take some pictures of him and send them to Marie or I so I can do some edits on them  I love photo's! And I'm sure he is fine if it was bugging him being in there he wouldn't keep going back in there. Animals know when things bug them, maybe not as much as we do but they still do. Its like my one cat, she thinks she belongs in RZ's enclosure when RZ isn't in it. Crazy animals |

If you think thats a crazy one, I've got one better. Remember we call him the Brat and this is why.  He climbs up on the shelving and almost knocks the snake off. You would think with his bulk he couldn't climb. But no one ever told that to Casper.  Casper is a Red Tegu. Wait until you see this next one.  That's Casper's sauna. We came in one day and Michellle spotted him in the bag she mistakenly left in the room. She ran over quickly to save him but he didn't want to get out. So she left him because he was going through a difficult shed and earlier that day she gave him a soak. Wouldn't you know after being all day in that bag he came out on his own with sheets of old skin hanging on him. We took all the old skin off, even his feet and he never looked better. bob |

The continuing adventures of Casper. Found a pile of rabbit pellets on the floor and when we looked in the bag, this is what we found.   You know, you would think he would use that $50.00 dog house we bought him, but OHHHH NOOO! bob |

HE is super cute! Of course he won't use the dog house, there isn't anything to get into there! He reminds me of a cat always wants in a bag or a box He's too cute! |
