They are high in fat and not much on calcium. You are better off when tegus are young to make their staple insects and turkey. Use supplements. A pinkie a week is fine but wait for them to grow enough for mice before feeding them all the time. _________________ Bennett beardiedragon.com Home of the Florida Orange Back to top reptilica1386 Valued Member Joined: Feb 05, 2005 Posts: 122 Location: lapeer michigan Posted: Sat Mar 12, 2005 6:36 pm    Post subject: yeah alright thanks.. i planned to give it insects and dust them... i will look into getting the ground turkey.. i havent heard of it before at the store so i will have to look around lauren Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         theTegu.com Forum Index -> General Care All times are GMT - 5 Hours Page 1 of 1 Translate to English using Google Language Tools:   Jump to: Select a forum General Site Forums----------------Site NewsWelcomeFun & GamesSuggestion BoxBusiness Ratings & ReviewsMembers LoungeHelpful Information Tegu Forums----------------Normal DiscussionGeneral CareHealth IssuesTegu HousingClassifiedsBreeding & GeneticsShow & Tell (Picture Forum)Lights!
