Have you tried feeding smaller meals more often? Instead of one large rat once a week or every other week. Try a mouse or small rat as well as other meats, fruits and eggs. When I fed my tegu Dino large rats he wouldn't eat for about a week either sometimes. So I didn't offer food for a while after wards but when I gave him smaller meals he ate practically every day.

Not to say yours is exactly the same since they have their own eating habits but it wouldn't hurt to try.

Especially if he's about 5 yrs old,.. how long have you had him?

Hello,

I try to feed him as you say but than I read an article about Callopistes flavipunctatus from Uwe Schlüter.
The text is in german so you wouldn`t understand anything.The animal has a big stomach to eat big prey.They are not active predators,they are passive they wait for big prey in their caves and than they run very fast out of it and kill the prey.
So it is natural to feed him as I practice and it is the only way he only eat big prey.
