I’m new to this forum but it seemed like a good place to ask a couple questions.
First me and my buddy rodney’s ( he’s a red and white tegu)Schedule don’t match up very well because I work all day. I have been leaving food in the cage in the morning and taking it out when I get home. I don’t get to see him very much unless I dig him up. My question is should I continue to leave food in his enclosure the way I have been doing or is it okay if I dig him up when I get home and take him out to feed him. This also makes it possible for us to spend some time together.
For example today I dug him up let him soak a little bit in warm water and he ate a thawed pinky mouse afte he came out of the tub to roam around a bit.
I’m just trying to figure out if I should continue to feed him like this so we can see each other more or if digging him up like that is a bad idea. If I don’t dig him up I only really get to see him on days I have off which is not very often. Thanks!
