Sticking tounge out

[Buda87]

My new Gu sticks it's tounge out while basking. Is this normal?
And also his skin seems very saggy. I know they do have some saggy skin but I am just a bit worried he's too skinny.

Pics not great but I will get more later

Thanks
Joshua

If he's too skinny it will be easiest to see in the tail. A tail that is a little thicker than where it connects to the tegu's body is the sign of a well fed tegu.

Ok thanks. I did think his tail was nice and chunky.
He just gorged himself on turkey mince and veg and now the belly wrinkles have disappeared lol

Awesome! Yeah he definitely sounds fine
