Hi again, you need to give me the size in cm or inches.
If the monitor is 30cm (12 inches or so), it might be that he/she is already sexually mature, if this is a female, you need to provide a deep substrate for egg deposition asap, that must be of a suitable medium and be heated to around the mid 80s F. Can you provide those things? (I`m sure you weren`t aware that this might possibly be the case)!
There`s so much nonsense being talked about this species, not surprising you and many others are so confused. My adivise on diet is good. Of course you can offer inverts, even a full grown Sav (and many other species of large varanid) will take them, but how will you satiate a possibly 120cm (4ft ) adult male with only insects? Yes, it`s possible, but VERY difficult, and not necessary...
