A Food Question

What about using feeder anoles? Is there anything saying that they are good, bad, or indifferent for them? I have given my monitor 2 of them once and he went completely ape over getting the chance to chase down his prey and kill it

the main problem with feeder anoles is that they tend to have a high parasite load (especially those which are wild caught) and can be expensive as a regular part of the diet. I do think you have to weigh the benefit of an enriching chase down!! I wouldn't use them as a regular part...

Thank you. I for sure don't want to make them the main part of his diet. He loves his rats and crickets and the many other things he gets his mouth on.
