Hi SiandLi ( Simon and Lisa ).Just feed them until they are full.Please don't forget to dust the crickets with the calcium and vitamine powder.Like on Monday and Tuesday the calcium,Wednesday the vitamine,Thursday and Friday the calcium powder and so on.I think I send you a care sheet if I didn't let me know and I send you some info.You also can give them some extra lean ground turkey ( at room temps ) and super worms.

Thanks for that that. I think it may have been you that lisa was talking too about the 2 year old tegu we had for a couple of days unfortunately he had a realy bad infection which we did not know about i didnt know how to treat the infection properly so to save him getting any worse ive given him to a reptile keeper local to me and started off with these baby's instead.
Any useful info is greatly appreciated. Thanks Si

Hi Simon.Yes,it was me icon_biggrin.gif .I'm sorry that things didn't work out with the other Tegu but thank you for being smart enough and giving him to some one that can help him and not keep him and let it get worse.Do you have some pics of your new baby Tegus ? just in case you need the info again I'll send it to you again.Good luck with your new Tegus.Please tell Lisa hi from me.Take care.
