Hello from new Tegu owners

[d-tr1k]

Hello everyone. We (my son who is 12 and I) are excited to be able to talk with other Tegu owners. We have had our Tegu (Kimchi) for about three weeks. He likes to stay burrowed all the time. Should we be concerned? Any helpful tips and advice for new owners is welcome.
Thanks in advance!

Typical this time of year for them to slow down to one extent or another.
