Thinking about getting a tegu and need some information

[TegusRawsome80]

Varied whole prey and fruits/veggies. No crappy ground meats, no chicken wings, none of that. WHOLE prey and fruits/veggies. =)

I also do not offer UVB, but Addo feed a high quality diet ONLY no trash.

Tegus don't need UVB IF they're provided with a proper, whole prey diet. None of my tegus have MBD or any health issues. It's completely unnecessary. I have UVB tube receptors in some of my cages but I stopped using the tubes quite a while ago. No need with the diet I provide.

What is your diet? How often do you feed what? I have a baby red, what would be a good idea to feed?

If you don't have extensive experience with tegus, don't try not using UVB. I feed whole prey. As varied as possible with lots of options.

I'm looking for some free chickens. Does anyone know where I could get some from.
