U have helped me so much. I really want to have all my information be4 I get a tegu. I live in iowa.

I portion my baby tegu food in ice cube trays. I line it with plastic wrap and fill each cube and thaw as needed. He's now up to a whole cube of food per day.

I thought my 3 year old was overweight, turns out he's not I'm just paranoid 😅 he's picky too.

I wish I could find a grinder cheap like you did for chicken bones.

Thanks for the fruit tips, I didn't know they could have apples!

I don't even have tegus but I love these vids! Especially the food prep! 🍻

Another brilliant video buddy! The hero of the tegu community right here 😃💪🏻👊🏻

Also, I think the sunflowers are an interesting idea. There was a study done on the gut contents of wild tegus and the majority was actually seeds and insects with whole prey only making up like 20% of it or something. Not sure on the exact numbers but I wanna say Laura Roberts was part of the study.

Thanks for the always great information. I made up some turkey, mango, blueberry and egg today and its going down great! (following first ever brumation) cheers from the UK

Joey, can you please provide information about the meat grinder you are using?

[shannonholder]

Thank you for your videos they are helping as I just got a red tegu yesterday

[jennifergregory]

Do you just grind up the whole papaya with seeds, skin etc. ? If you do are there any fruits or veggies I don't do that on?

[zepedumb]

So do you keep the excess food in the freezer then thaw it as they need it?

[Outdoorcertified]

Hey bud love the video I use alot of the same stuff I switch it up alot as well I need a meat grinder lol

[flowersreptiles]

I love this video! I go to my local meat market and get a variety, my tegus favorite thing to eat by FAR are chicken necks. My tegus aren’t big fruit/veggie eaters but they do take some papaya when I can get it in season

[brianrosado]

Can I feed these to other reptiles besides tegus

[primitivebulliestony]

Hey Joey…. My tegus just got out of brumation too. Another awesome video and tips to save 💰on our selfish hobby 😂. I never tried blueberry maybe this yr I’ll start. Love your channel and even if I don’t comment I’m still her watching and giving you the 👍

[hurricanemala]

Do you ever use squash? It's super high in vitamin A & C and calcium. I see it always being recommended for bearded dragons... wondering about tegu?

[roxannesides]

Loralie doesn't eat fruit. I offer it but she only eats ground turkey, salmon, super worms, and hornworms. And on occassion steak when we have it.
Antiope seems to eat everything!
She is so much more confident than Loralie too.

Is ground beef and steak ok?
What about eggs? I saw on another video/channel eggs should be hardboiled or scrambled.
They eat raw eggs in the wild.
