I am totally agree. Tegus they need the fruits and veggies and the antioxidant in them will be beneficial for the metabolism, and to make balance between the high protein diet they eat as the staple food....I usually give my adult-older tegu papaya, orange, apples, and strawberry and he loves it almost the same with chicken. For the monitor lizards, even I still give them the apples ( I grated some and chopped it again very2 small), and I pour it on top of the meat or chicken minced....some of them still pick only meat, but I noticed they eat still a part of the apples quickly before realize it....fruits and veggies are the best food just like human.... it is not too good to eat meat alone
