hi worm, sounds good. it is better if the mouse is pre-killed or frozen/thawed.

a variety of foods are good. they can eat mealworms, superworms, roaches, snails, crayfish, quail hatchlings, quail eggs, cooked hard boiled eggs or scrambed egg, mice, rats, hamster, gerbil, frogs, fresh fish fillets,
raw meats would include turkey, lamb, venison, chicken, chicken gizzards, beef liver.

yes,they can be very picky about what they eat.Try some raw ground turkey.Please don't forget to give your Tegu some vitamine and calcium powder ( for reptiles ) every now and than.
