power feeding

this is a quote from someone who has been breeding monitors for thirty years over twenty species over generations-who did not go to Africa and study stomach contents of wild Sav's,and who feeds his monitors just crickets and mice.
"such terms such as power feeding,are naive(read stupid)terms when related to captive husbandry.What does that mean,feed the animal when hungry?So what the hack,if you are feeding an animal when it wants to eat and feeding it till it's not hungry,that is not power feeding,that is normal feeding,anything less is substandard." Frank Retes

The people who have followed his way are also having success and breeding monitors over more than 1 generation-as far as i know you guys haven't even bred monitors,not even Robert Spracklands illegimate son-that he's not even aware of.Forums are for different points of view,you all seem to have the same view-and have no real need to broaden your learning and anything i can learn from you isn't anything i can't learn from a book from the sixties.Anything you have that is new was developed by Frank Retes or people like him,i'll just go to the source-so this is not a good fit for me-this was my last post.Moderator please delete my account
