i was at my local shop/breeder getting more crickets for my bearded dragon when i saw the tegu. i got to talking to the guy about him/her. he fed him and let me hold him. i knew i wanted him so i bought him. he ate 2 crickets and he loves his montior diet. he is very calm he lets me pick him up and he will walk around on my hand.

should i feed him until he stops eating or should i feed him a little at a time? and what should his basking site be at? it is around 105 right now. is that to high? that is the temp that the guy at the shop tiold me.
also are all b&w kind of gold when they are young? cuz he has gold and white and a little green?
thanks for all of the help and answering all of my questions.
