Feeding Chicken & Turkey to Tegu Lizards
Tegus can eat raw poultry such as chicken and turkey, which are nutritious and low in fat. While cooked meat can be given occasionally, it is best to feed raw meat as the cooking process denatures the quality of proteins and nutrients. Chicken or turkey parts such as hearts, livers, mollejas, necks, pies, and carcasses can be fed to tegus, with ground meat being a popular option for mixing in vegetables and supplements.
