Ok. I know it's related to calcium def. or MBD. But here's the interesting question. I got this adult tegu as a rescue two years ago from a pet store. I do not know the history if this tegu before I obtained it. She has had UVB and a good diet of rodents and fruits and veggies as often as she'll eat them (not too often she's picky). She's never had any shaking or tremoring signs the entire time I have had her. She started about a week ago she'll crawl under her UVB and basking light and start wriggling her legs and toes like small muscle spasms. I'm giving her everything she needs aside from suplimenting her food. I am going to build her an enclosure outside this spring and let her spend the summer outside in natural sunlight and hope that may help. But at this time anyone know why I have had her for two years without a sign of problems and it start now? And anyone know if this should stop or how serious the issue is at the point she's starting to tremble?
