As i have gotten me a tegu from someone who has fed them porc (lol)
i wondered about the feeding regime of these lizards.
I think feeding them too many mice isnt a good idea as they contain a lot of fat. Maybe cooked lean meat such as chicken is a better option.
And maybe a mouse every once in a while.
Together with vegetable matter and fruits of course.

Cooked meat (not eggs) aren't good. If ANYTHING, you MAY feed raw ground turkey, although it's really used only because it's cheap. Feed bugs, mice, and fruits, plain meat sucks IMO.
