About Two Weeks Ago A Purchased An Argentine Black And White Tegu Around 1 1/2 Months of Age.Upon Receival He Was taken to the vet just to get checked out and the vet said he was healthy.In The past 4 days He has gone from being a spunky energetic little guy to being quite listless and is spending alot more time in comparison undeground,and has stopped eating as much.At First I Thought This Could just be due to the cold atmosphere.What I Saw two days Really Disturbed me though.He Was Out Basking And His Legs Were Twiching Non-Stop,Since Then He Is Slithering More or less, and his legs are under him when he walks.He More or uses his legs and arms to drag him.It Seems Like Some signs Of MBD. But His Diet Is Not Lacking In Calcium.He Eats Raw lean Ground turkey,And Dusted Crickets with the occasional worm of some sort. Does Anybody Have An Idea Of What Im Dealing With. I Would Really Appreciate Any Suggestions From Experienced Owners as This is only my first tegu and I would hate for anything to happen.
