    Rescue tegu help

    I went to take her out just now and she tried to bite me. I'm pretty sure she thought I was feeding her or I was food. I have been tong feeding her outside of the tank since she has issues getting the food off her plate. Could this be why? It's so sudden but on e she was out she's great

    Anytime I introduce a new food she gets loose stool. I'm not sure of its because its all new and her system has to get used to it or should I schedule a vet visit? So far hard boiled eggs, pear, fish, grapes, and bananas have causes soft stool.

    Hey guys I'm Linda and I'm new here. I adopted a tegu on 10/23/13. I was told its is an Argentine black and white. It's about 27" nose to tip of tail. This is the first tegu I have owned.
