    How to Determine the age of a young/adult tegu ??

    Do u know how to find out the age of a tegu..?? We got " Oreo" last yr. n she was already about 22in. N now she's up between 30-31in. She grew pretty fast. But I'm guessing bc we built her a 4' by 2' cage so she had space to grow into.. We r hoping soon to build her a bigger one..

    My tegu seems to be a meat eater..

    Good idea.. We do something like that with our dogs meds when needed.. I will have to try bc she needs to eat other things.. N mayb after getting a taste of it after a lil she may eat them alone..

    How much does your tegu eat and how often?

    Mine eats like every other day, she's lil over 2 ft. N it's not ver costly for the food.. Hard boiled eggs, ground turkey( I put in med size meatballs), n freeze. N once a week give her that. The meat will last a while, a bunch of dif fruit. ( n u can do the same put in portion sizes n freeze)...
