Can you feed other lizards to a tegu?

是的, you can feed your tegu feeder lizards such as Anoles and House Geckos.

You should however avoid feeding them reptiles you catch yourself, only purchase feeder lizards from reputable sources.

Feeder lizards are a healthy addition to a juvenile tegu’s diet because they count as whole prey and are small enough for them to consume.

Keep in mind however that you do not necessarily need to feed reptiles to a tegu and it is perfectly fine to stick to insects, 老鼠, chicks and seafood as protein sources.

There are also reptilinks options made from iguana meat, which is an excellent choice if you want to include reptiles in your tegu’s diet. 你可以得到 $5 off your order using code “PETSWITHSCALES” at checkout.
