Voiko tegus syödä rypäleitä?

Tegu lizards are fond of sweet fruits and it is generally safe to feed them grapes and dates in limited amounts.

Jos vain voit, try to get your hands on some Thompson seedless grapes as these are the best variety for tegus.

If you can only find grapes with seeds then it is recommended that you cut each grape in half and get rid of the seeds yourself before serving it to your tegu, as indigestible seed consumption in large amounts may lead to impaction.
