Basking Temperature : 100F - 110 F Cage Temperature : 80F - 85 F during the day and just slightly cooler at night . Cage Lighting : Use full spectrum (UVB) or they will need D3 added to their diet . Hide box : Should be kept slightly moist but not wet to the touch Food : this tegu is primarly carnivorous and should be fed a diet of crickets , king mealworms , rodents Adult Coloration : can varies in shades of powder blue , blue , green , platinum. A few individuals display some orange coloration on their underside. The blue coloration does not usually begin to show untill the animals are almost 18 months of age .
