I have a 4 year old B&W Tegu. He hasnt pooped in awhile (2 weeks). He has labored breathing and seems very uncomfortable. He is housed outside here in central FL. Temps have been in and around 90's (air temps) he basks in the sun regularly. His diet has been grnd turkey mixed with mixed veggied and fruits and F/T mice and rats. (whatever my snakes dont eat).

I have been soaking him the past 2 days and all that i have gotten out of him was some pee. although today he seemed to fart or realease some gas (stinky). Should I just keep him on the routine of saokings? Is there something he might eat that would help this along? I read someplace pumkin? Please let me know

Thank you,

Scott
