Congrats on the new addition :) each tegu varies and can set their own schedule just the same as switch up at any time. The times she's up can be normal for now and can/will change later especially with the seasons and sometimes just the weather that day.


For mine their lights come on around 7:15 am, they usually make their way under the lights by 7:45. The lights go off around 4:45 pm and they're usually already down sometimes at least a couple of hours before that for this time of year. A couple of days a go Milla (colombian) didn't come out of her hide until around 10:30. She just laid there with her head out watching things for a bit and dozing off afterwards she still went down way before the lights went off.


Can you post more pics, I like how speckled it is. It looks like there's not a solid black line or patch on it. 


Have you verified the sex? 

I could be wrong but from that pic it looks like the jowls are starting to come in.
