poop and hibernation

[new2tegus]

Okay, other than quite a bit less of an output he's in perfect health. He eats everyday 2-3 fuzzies, sometimes 4,and is quite active. So should I be worried, because he use to leave a pile and now it's about half.

Are you feeding him 2 to 3 fuzzies every day?

 

[new2tegus]

Yes, that's all he will eat, I try to mix it up,but he refuses,so I guess I have to stop and let him get hungry and give him something else.

Yeah to many whole prey meals arent good for them mine didnt want anything else but
pinkies at first but i kept trying other stuff and now she eats everything lol

I wouldn't be worried ATM. If hes not taking a lot in there won't be a lot to leave. What I do is stop offering whole prey or whatever the tegu is "hooked on" and keep offering what I want them to eat. Eventually they're hungry enough to where they don't care what it is. They won't starve themselves if they are otherwise healthy.

Thanks rhet lol, I feel bad doing that, but I will have to. I waited a day the one week, and he still turned his nose up at the turkey/ liver mix. Will have to wait longer lol.
