My Red just woke up from his long winters nap today. When should I start offering him food?

he will probably not have an apetite for a couple of weeks, offer him some food in a couple of days, he might go back to sleep for a while still but if he is up on a regular basis offer him food , but he may not eat for a little while still. mine didnt eat for a week after hibernation

How does your Tegu look like.Is his tail fat ? does he look skinny ? before you feed him make sure he is basking a lot first and that he drinks a lot,too.
