I'm a new tegu owner. I've had my red tegu for only about 2-3 weeks now. he's probably about 6 months old. He has started burrowing most of the day after having him about a week. I've been feeding him when I catch him out in the early morning, and after I started giving him ground turkey and a little bit of fruits he ate like he's never seen food before, but now the last couple days he hasn't seemed very interested in the food I've been giving him. I'm not sure if this could be due to brumation, still getting used to the new environment, or if he may be impacted or something else may be wrong? I haven't seen him poop but I've found brown clumps in his enclosure.. idk if that was poop or just clumps of mulch, though. since he's still new I can't really be sure if this is normal or if something could be wrong. I wanted to check in with more experienced tegu owners to see what they think.
