[Bill]

They are teeth

 

[ajandj]

soooo, why do people say lizards don't have teeth.. i'm confussed... sorry if this is silly

 

[Bill]

They don't know what there talking about let them get bit by a tokay then tell you they don't have teeth or a monitor I have scars from both

 

[ajandj]

LMAO.. i had a bluey do a death roll on my pinkie a couple of years ago. Yoda has given me a little love bite a few weeks ago, (only because l was stupid enough to hand feed.... note to self - when hand feeding, place food in palm of hand and not on end of finger -), i was more shocked than hurt

Yep! They have choppers. My youngest and I both learned the hard way. She scared him by trying to pick him up from behind and he got her thumb. Gobi then tried to bite me for trying to take a "no-no" NON-food away. Felt like a nasty paper cut when it happened, and was sore like one for almost a week after.

Whoever said they don't have teeth? lol How else do they crunch and much on insects/food in general. My baby accidentally bit me a few times before, and I can tell ya it hurts. Not too painful, nothing in comparison to monitors, iguanas, tokays, the list goes on. Even snakes have teeth.

My Daughter also fell fowl to their bites. One of our boys was out having a prowl one day and she was winding him up by wiggling her toes at him. She will never do it again tho after he clamped his jaws round her big toe. She now has a 'V' shaped scar on her toe and had bruised toenail for weeks. We thot it was funny but she didnt

haha! we had a tort that loved my red shoes and evertime i wore my red birks she would come towards me, she thought it was a tomato lol! and when you got a very large tort chasing you you have to move.

Adorable and beautiful, I don't know a lot about the different turtles out there, what kind of turtle is this?

 

[lisa foster]

Every lizard I have most certainly have teeth. I have been bitten enough to know. My female beardie peggy bit me hard when I was trying to get a syringe in her mouth it did not break the skin though so their teeth don't do as much damage as my other lizards.

I would not even want to know how much it would hurt to be bit by my savannah. My extreme tries to bite toes he has gotten my husbands and my 8 year old's. This is the bite on my husand's toe from my yearling extreme tegu

This is my savannah when she whips me she leaves welts so you can imagne a bite from her

My tegus one is 40" 14 pounds the othe is 36" 5 pounds maybe a bit more

 

[lisa foster]

My tegus are very friendly they free roam most days when I am home. I also have dogs and they are fine with the, Chevy is going through a fresh faze so he is trying to sample toes but that should pass.
