Can Tegu Lizards Eat Pork? (Bacon, Ham, Sausages)

是的, tegus可以吃任何种类的肉, 包括猪肉.

那说, 你不应该经常给你的tegu喂猪肉，因为它脂肪含量高，可能导致肥胖.

鸡肉或火鸡等瘦肉更健康 and a more preferable choice for your pet’s diet.

喂猪肉的时候, 家禽或任何种类的肉到你的tegu, it is best to serve it raw as not to denature any protein.

This means avoid feeding them bacon, 火腿或热狗, which are also usually processed and have too high amounts of salt.

If a tegu eats any of these very occasionally they will be unlikely to experience any negative effects, but feeding cured and processed pork products regularly will harm their health in the long term.

Tegu and Pork FAQs

tegus可以吃培根吗?

Bacon is a processed food which can have high amounts of fat and sodium, and in general you should avoid feeding it to your tegu.

Turkey bacon is technically healthier than pork bacon, but there is still not really any reason you would feed cured meat to your tegu.

反而, opt for plain ground meat or raw steak, 这是未加工的，因此更健康的选择.

Lean meats like chicken and turkey should be your first option.

Can tegus eat hot dogs?

喜欢培根, 普通热狗是经过大量加工的食物，不应该属于你的 tegu 饮食.

有一个例外, 尽管, in the case of “hot dogs” made specifically for reptiles, 如 爬虫链接.

These are not made of pork but rather whole prey, such aas insects, 老鼠, 鹌鹑, 青蛙或兔子, 并经常与鸡蛋和蔬菜混合以制作完整的一餐.

爬虫链接 are not only safe for your tegu but they actually provide a lot of nutrition and they are highly recommended as an alternative to feeding frozen whole prey.
