Tegu has strange breathing (video)

[dragonqueen4]

Hi,
My B/W Argentine Tegu has been breathing different. I just noticed it yesterday and Im a bit worried. I notice it when hes laying there under his heat lamp, relaxing, that his breathing is normal then suddenly becomes deep, but quick short breathes. Any idea why or what would cause this?
His poop was also runny just now.. the last few things he has eaten was chicken hearts and salmon.
I took a video and you can see the way hes breathing at the beginning. I just uploaded it, so it may not be available for viewing just yet.

Leanne, I really believe your gu was just responding to your intrusion with the camera, etc...

I see nothing at all to be alarmed about.

i would almost bet your tegu had just eatin. is this correct?. after large meals tegus due tend to breath a bit like that. i also dont see any cause for alarm. runny poo is normal at times also, just not consistent

my tegu does this whenever i disturb him while he's napping. your tegu is fine.
