That last photo is terrifying lol
The first picture is soo cute!! He looks like he is suspicious!
Why did you crack the egg instead of just letting him eat it whole?
Thanks for sharing. Great pics.
First photo reminds me of the velociraptors (sp) on Jurrasic Park!
It's amazing!
I used to save all my eggshells from cooked eggs and crush them with a mortar and pestle to use for the turtles/tortoises I had.
Time for a pet quail?He cant swallow a hole egg. So i have two choices:
If i let him crack his own egg open, he will just pick it up and drop i few times, then drink out the center. But he wont eat the shell because its too hard to crush.
If i crack the egg myself, then i can beat up the whole shell. The result is he will eat the squishy shell.
A good tegu treat is quail eggs, since they can eat them whole, but they are $$$.

What is the personality of your tegu like?
Aww, sounds like the sweetest little dude ever."an old dog"
Kinda just lays in the spot he likes. He will tolerate petting and being picked up and carried, at worst he makes huffing noses to alert you he is annoyed, yet not annoyed enough to make the effort to move. Hes never done an agressive bite or response, and never tail wipped. Ive got bit a few times feeding, but thats just because i thought he would feed like a beardy, he dont... You hand feed him a dubia even when he was 3lbs, and he eats the dubia, and your fingers, and the confusion starts. Doesnt mawl, but the gears are turning on how to get rid of the fingers and keep the bug.
Surprisingly he has a very soft bite. He cant even chop a banana in half.
