tegu toys?

Know of any? Other than rodents? Dexter is super happy with his new home. He stretchs out in the most lazy fashions.

i have heard of people getting those dog treat balls, stuffing them with their tegus favorite treat and then playing fetch. or using a tennis ball and doing pretty much the same thing.

I've been using small treat balls for dogs and putting wax worms in them. He seems to love it.

A few videos -

They don't always fall out correctly though and he gets aggravated - still trying to find a better treat but wax worms are the only thing he'll put that much effort into.

apocalypse910, what about blue bottle fly larvae (maggots)? Or are they too small?

Hmm - haven't tried those. Not sure if I can get them in my area but if I can I'll give it a shot. The wax worms seem to be just about the right size - they just have an annoying tendency to grab on to the ball and not fall out though.
