 Tegu helps!!

What kind of tegu is it? Argentine or Columbian? Eggs tend to give my Argentine the runs so I rarely give eggs. Do you feed in the enclosure? If so, is it possible that your tegu has been ingesting substrate? Even if you don’t see it being done if your substrate has the scent of food on it then your tegu may snack every now and then. I would check your temps and make sure they are warm enough, I would even go as high as 113 on the hot basking spot. Give warm baths to see if you can get your tegu to have a bm. If all looks normal during the next bm then I would consider the possibility that your tegu is getting ready to slow down for the cool months if your tegu is an Argentine, if he is a Columbian he will likely not slow down so you may need further investigation.
