My tegus adicted to mice and the ground turkey mix I made him >_< He won't bother with eggs, regular ground turkey, or fish... I guess i'll have to wait him out.

thats weird. how many mice does he eat? must be pretty pricey only feeding him mice and a ground turkey mix. do you think hell grow out of it or something?

 

[crimsonrazac]

yeah, I just think I have to wait till hes really hungry lol.

Crazy! They really can be stubborn sometimes. Fortunately, you have that ravenous hunger on your side and Spring has sprung. It won't take long to wait him out. I'd say a week or less.

to get mine to eat the egg you have to mix it with the meat and then he will eat it other than that he wont touch it

hey i dont know if this is bad but my tegu is addicted to liver and eggs, he wont eat anything else i keep trying mice and he turns me down, any ideas?

Dip the mouse in eggs. They'll usually take it then.

Mine went through fod in phases, when it was small mice is al it would eat, then when it grew up more it developed an apetite for just about anything that falls on his plate. Just like a little kid, if you give him the option of ice cream or dinner, hell pick icecream every time.

Yea, my red will only eat live fuzzies (occasionally f/t if I am lucky), boiled chicken, and blueberries. Anything else she won't touch.
