Green Ameiva Eating Egg

[Gene0514]

This is a male green ameiva that I recently purchased from a local pet store.
He's about 20" i think from nose to tail tip, but his tail is like 2/3 of his total length. I've been feeding him crickets, superworms, mealworms, nightcrawlers, and for the first time egg. So here are some pics and a video of him.

If you can go more for a boiled egg then a raw one as boiling destroys tyaminase which is plentifull on unfertilized chicken eggs and isnt a good thing to eat. Asside from that what a nice lizard You should get him a bride

Thanks for the advice
I'll try boiling it, and chopping it up next time
Some day i might get him a female. Maybe, for his new years present
