I recently got a young tegu who is about two months old now. All he will eat is pinkys an only if hand feed. I know he is young an need as much crickets an insects he can get. But he won't eat anything else. Any suggestions on how what to feed him. Plus he is still new so isn't out very much cause of new place.

No sweat on his hiding. Takes a week or two or even yree tobsettle. Make sure his pinkies are liberally dusted with calcium. Others here can tell you the proper 2:1 ratio based on prey size.
