How much do u spend for food, monthly?

i spend at least 60$ a month on my nile a month, he eats aalloooot. I wish they were more like snakes hehe...

but for a nile, they move way too much and burn to much.

what about savanahs? do they eat and are as active as niles?

Plan on spending about 1200-1500 per year on food for a Exanthimaticus. I have five monitors right now two of which are Boscs. My large male can eat 2 med rats, or six chicks, or 20 jumbo mice, and even a baby bunny in one feeding. Well not all at one time. lol But that is the type and amount he can pack down in one sitting. Different places charge different amount for their food items so I can't give you an exact amount just a guess.
Your nile should eat around the same amount in a year.

1200-1500 a year? That's like $23-$29/week?

You should be able to keep a Sav well fed (2-4 rats a week) for less than 1/3 of that in CDN $$$.

We raise our own rats, so it's about $50 a month for supplies which feeds our 20 snakes and 2 savs who get about 2 each/week plus all the refused meals from the balls!
