Hamburger Meat?

[ashesc212]

Hi all,

Can tegus eat raw hamburger meat? My bf fed it to the tegu without finding out first!! I didn't see it listed on the caresheet.

Yes, it's fine.

Yes, it's fine.

Is there a preference? Is one healthier for the little guy than the other?

As long as it's low in fat (less than 5%?). Beef tends to be fattier than turkey. But at a young age it may not matter.
