Should you let your tegu poop before he eats? Also all my hatchling wants to eat is ground turkey. I mix tortoise mazury ground up, egg and calcium over it. I have offered salmon, kiwi, strawberries and he will eat a grape here and there but all he will eat mainly is the ground turkey mix. My yearling eats all of the above but acts like he is having problems with bowel movement which I am really concerned about. I feed every other day. Tonight I fed him but he didn't poop. He ate and basked for awhile then he just burrowed so he is done for the day. Any suggestions. Thanks. Kelly
