Question on Tegu Stool

So my young argentine tegu produced semi solid green stool today. It doesn’t seem normal and I’ve so far seen a variety of causes from parasites to liver disease and just due to the consumption of eggs (which I do offer him time to time when he refuses crickets). What should I be looking for and what is a sign that a vet visit is needed?

I'm not sure that would be enough info for me to comment on, because - like people - maybe that might change in a couple days? I have given my tegus raw egg for 2 yrs now, and it doesn't seem to present a prob for them. I don't do it every meal, more like 1x a week maybe 2. My Tegus get thawed rodents (mice, etc) and a variety of raw meats and fish. One of them likes fruits and veggies. So what do you feed your Tegu, and how often?

Also - what supplements do you give him?

Anything change in his diet? Has he yet seen a vet since you got him? Always a good idea for an initial vet check. Maybe a good reason for a visit.
