It also depends on the type/species and age of your tegu. Most people here seem to agree that mice of the right size and insects (king mealworms, crickets, locusts, roaches) should form the basis of the diet, along with lesser amounts of lean turkey, eggs, snails, fish etc to supplment this, along with at least some fruit/veg. No two tegus keepers seem to agree 100% on this though, which to me is part of their appeal! Mark.
