I got my first tegu a little over a week ago and he seemed ok. Had a good appetite(ate over half a boiled egg yolk and a few crickets a couple hours later). Now he wont eat any crickets. Has no interest in them. Ive been feeding him ground turkey, which he seems to like but eats an amount about the size of a jellybean. Sometimes more. Hes still pretty young btw, about 8" id say. He sometimes makes a clicking sound and what sounds like sneezing. It isn't constant. Just when hes out exploring or asleep in my shirt. Hes an active tegu when awake, and sleeps probably 10 to 12 hours a day. Im hoping its not an RI and just being paranoid.
