Newbie here with two 3 month old Tegus of mixed parentage. They look like Argentines but with hints of red.
I just can't get them to eat veggies. I try to mix finally chopped chard or mustard greens into stuff they like and they find a way to shake almost all of it off. I'm supplementing twice a week with ZooMed Reptivite and their calcium supplement. They have mercury vapor heat/light. Is that adequate? The diet is superworms, mango, papaya, salmon and chopped up mice. I skin the mice over concerns of fur impaction and too much fat; a whole fat layer comes off with the skin.
