hello i just got a Argentine red tegu on saturday at a local reptile show and feed it hard boiled eggs on saturday i have two questions since i am new to lizards but keep other reptiles I have the tegu in a 4x2 cage now with a substrate i use for one of my snakes its aspen shavings but for "small mammals" so my first question is when should i expect it too eat next since the tegu is borrowed non stop and has not come back out too eat ive left some more eggs in there right now and geuse will leave it for bout another hour but it still has not eaten since saturday is this normal for a new baby tegu. My second question is that the tegu i took it out tonight too check on it and see how its looking but it was making kinda a wheezing sound now im used too the signs of hissing snakes but this was kinda a like breath out but not really loud like any of my snakes and then would take a deep breath back in so im wondering if this could be a possibility of a RI but theres no other signs of it since ive seen it before in one of my snakes i adopted from a person so if i could get some help that would be appricated.
