So I have a 4'+ 12 lb '08 Varnyard Arg Black & White Tegu...
He eats a wide array of meats including ground turkey, beef liver, chicken gizzards, crustations, etc... as well as whole foods such as hairless mice, chicks and live fish... and scrambled eggs or raw egg yolks...
I've offered a host of fruits and vegetables but in general he's just not interested. He does eat grapes on occasion but very rarely accepts any others...
But just now I was pouring myself a glass of OJ as the Tegu free roamed the house. He tried crawling up my leg as I ignored him and poured my juice. So I put a little in a dish and offered it to him. To my surprise he drank it all and seemed eager for more. So I got his larger dish and gave him about a 6 oz serving and he drank it all.
I myself drink a good bit of juice and stock a fairly wide variety. I think I may experiment a bit with different fruit/vegetable juices just to see what he likes.
Any workds of wisdom to consider appreciated... and of course I'll share the results of what he likes and what he doesn't...
