I almost did the same thing.I fed my tegu a mouse that was too big for him and I thought I was going to have to try and pull it out of his mouth.He acted like he was having trouble breathing and It took him a good 15min. to finally swallow it, he was really bloated after that.I guess I was lucky.Now he only gets smaller mice...I honestly didnt think they would actually choke themselves but would spit it out if too big or tear it in peices.Thats what Ive heard but I guess now we know thats not always the case...
