    Refuses to eat whole foods

    I thought I should update the situation: I've tried to cut up the mice, but she's not interested at all. Only time I've gotten her to eat veges is when I stuff them into her dog food so no pieces are visible (If they are visible she won't eat it) So I can only cram about four small carrot...

    So, I just got a one year old Tegu two days ago, and she has mostly been under the substrate, and she hasn't eaten at all. I understand that this is normal behavior since she's probably pretty stressed out from all the change, but I also had a thought this morning, what if she's about to...

    Hey there!

    Hi there! Name's Lizz, I'm a first time Tegu owner, and this adorable creature is Cynder, she's an Argentine black and white Tegu, I just got her two days ago. She doesn't really like me much yet, but I suspect that's normal when adopting a year old Tegu I've also read that they aren't big fans...
