Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

What kind of lighting do you have on the Tegu? Have you been supplementing the scrambled eggs? Are you positive he isn't slowing down due to hibernation?
If you no longer wish to keep your tegu I would be happy to take him, I have two others now so he would just be another part of the family. Just don't "let nature do its course" No need to let an animal die when it can be saved.

Agreed. Pictures and more information regarding husbandry would be helpful. Some things to include...
~What kind of enclosure is he in and where is it located?
~Exactly what kind of lighting are you using? UVA? UVB? What wattage or percent?
~Has he been OFFERED anything besided scrambled eggs?
~Supplements? How often? What kind?
~How old is he and how much does he weigh?
And please don't take this question the wrong way it's meant so that I could help you further...Did you research Tegus before you adopted one?
