My Tegu isnt getting his fill with his diet

[Chelsea M.]

I am feeding my Tegu pinkies once a week, fruit mixtures (when out of fresh fruit), fresh fruit, crickets, mealworms, and waxworms (worms and crickets dusted with the right nutrients). He's is getting pretty big and so i thought maybe there would be something else he will be able to eat that would be on a normal Argentina Black and White Tegu's diet. I would like to give him what I normally do (listed above) and add things that wouldn't hurt him and still be okay for his diet. If u dont mind i would like a list of fruits and other foods i havn't thought of. He doesnt seem to be interested in what i give him anymore.

~thanx~

He could have ground turkey, liver, cooked egg...

I changed that topic where it will stay on top of the tegu care page.

As for the fruits and veggies, some of my tegus just will not eat them. I do not even try to feed them to my tegus any longer, I also do not think they are needed to keep tegus healthy.

I feed mine Crickets, Roaches, Mealworms, Super worms, Pinkie mice, Quail, Baby chickens, Mice, Rats, whole small fish, Soft-boiled or scrambled eggs, ground turkey, Fresh fish filets, beef liver, chicken liver, beef hearts, chicken gizzards, chicken hearts, ducklings and even a toad every now or then.
