So my mom recently got a gold tegu from a pet store in very bad condition with missing toes, crust on eyes and nose and poor body mass and dry shed on him. She gave the manager at the store a hard time and got money off and gave me the tegu. Long story short i need to make sure im doing everything right and any tips would be great. First off he is a baby at about 9 inches. He is currently in a 40 gallon cage but i have a 5 by 3 by 3 foot cage coming from my other house. In it is cypress mulch 3-4 inches and plantation soil 3 inches. Humidity is 75 and ambient temp is also 75. Basking is 110 at the hottest point. He has a large water dish and cave and stick. also a uvb 10.0 bulb . He has been eating dusted crickets and mealworms and a f/t pinky. what else should i be feeding and about how much a day? I tried to post pics but my phone wont load to my laptop.I want to make sure he lives the life he deserves. A happy and healthy one.thanks
