Has anyone here ever seen a Tegu missing the fork at the end of his tongue? He still flicks his tongue and it appears to have a slight split at the end but no real fork. I do not know if he was borne this way or if he lost it some how. Does anyone here know if this is a problem and if it was lost will he re-grow the fork?
Thank you for any help.
hi,
ive read that it sometimes happens, when tegus eat in groups...
i think it will affect the tegus ability to locate food slightly, and it wont regrow. but your tegu can definitly live a happy live without the fork.
have a nice one
