Tegu hasn't pooped in a week!

[Stormi]

How can I get my tegu to poop? Since his last poo he has eaten 3 pinkies and about 20 roaches. I give him a warm bath everyday and his basking spot is about 130 and it's a 160 watt powersun. He's passed urates... Oh and he's about 4 1/2 months old.

Could be nothing. He should be growing like a weed. Does he look distressed? If not, wouldn't worry yet.

 

[Stormi]

He seems fine I think, he's not as active as he used to be though but I'm thinking the colder weather is the cause of that because my room gets colder at night. I basically have to wake him up and make him bask at about 1 and he goes back to sleep around 4.

Unless a potential impaction, don't sweat it. Fall means a natural slow down.

 

[Stormi]

Ok thanks, cant be impaction because I feed him outside his enclosure.

You're learning the rhythm of your gu!!
