Re: Cassie eating a fuzzy.
I'm not going to reply to any more monitor threads. I've just been informed that "natural" is not good for the animal, so clearly I've been doing it wrong with my fourteen guys.

Don't be like that.. post up pics of your set ups and your guys tell people more. Not everyone has to do things the SAME way. Maybe if people have set ups like yours they will have an easier time keeping the same species.I for one would love to see pics of full set ups and your guys in them.

Yes, in moderation.

This is true about whole prey but I have been informed that when feeding frogs, just the legs are better because it reduces the risk of parasites.

Re: Cassie eating a fuzzy.
no one said natural is not good for the animal, i do believe it was "balanced between natural and improved (maybe not the best choice of word)" because they don't eat them OFTEN in the wild, doesn't mean they wouldn't given the opportunity.

Re: Cassie eating a fuzzy.
No one ever said your way is wrong, but if you are going to insist that 99% of the world is wrong, please be prepared for rebuttals.

Re: Cassie eating a fuzzy.
No, but I don't have a PhD, remember? Clearly I have no right or reason to speak my mind, because doing so is "imprudent".

Re: Cassie eating a fuzzy.
Barelybreathing,I'll say it,you're wrong-you just can't separate reality and your ideals.Your 'natural' ideal is just your opinion,it doesn't match reality.Your criticism of Daniel Bennet is ridiculous because he did a study on Sav's in the wild,and he surveyed those kept in captivity and found that the majoririty of keepers need rodents in their diet for anykind of longterm sucess-two separate things.1-wild monitors 2-monitors in captivity.

Wow, that is so far out of context... I don't know how to respond without being condescending.
