cut the pinkies up (assuming you use frozen) or even get larger adult mice, small rats and cut those up for him.
once cut up throw some mealworms into the blood in a bowl with the rest of the guts.. it sounds gross but i guarentee you it will work.

yes, throw the worms into the guts , sorry if i wasnt clear
also, cut up some larger rodents... and throw it in for your tegu, unfortunatly pinkies contain little to no nourishment at all, so you're gonna want something more nutritious........this is where the larger "chopped" up rodents come into play. Good luck
