Re: Sav Diet Quails??

It won't be a problem, just don't make it regular diet.

Do you have a roach colony??

So your father bred savs? What's your father's name? It's quite the accomplishment to have captive bred savs.

Re: Sav Diet Quails??

Your father is Dr. Robert Sprackland? I thought he was American and lives in Seattle.

Cool, Robert has written quite a few articles and books on herpetology.
I was not aware that he had bred v.exanthematicus.
You should get his notes and post them. It would be very useful info for those looking to breed them.

Really? So if I get a hold of him(which I can do. We met in Portland at a show and he offered his help with my rescue/zoo) he will confirm what you are saying here?

Re: Sav Diet Quails??

Quail is perfectly healthy as long as he can swallow it down. On a few other forum's I know members who breed these just for there monitors. You can feed them all the time ther very healthy as long as it's the whole prey. Remember alway's stick to whole prey items.
