>>How often should i feed a small argentine black and white tegu? Adult? adn generally how many cricket and mealworms do your tegus eat at a sitting?

I feed a small tegu every day and an adult every other day. I feed them until they walk away from their food or until the lateral fold on their bellies disappears.

I haven't had fed any of them bugs in years, so I can't really answer the other question. It seemed that they could easily knock out close to a dozen good sized crickets daily when they were small.
