Hi again, as far as diet, I use a rodent based, then include fish, either fresh or saltwater (they can catch them live, but I feed f/t of f/k), if the fish is too large, cut into slices along the length so each portion contains bones, intestines, also prawns/shrimp, etc.
You can also offer chicks, fertilised quail eggs (whole if raw) or cooked, though they lose a little nutritional value in cooking, they are still a decent meal (I sometimes scramble them).
My current (male) salvator has never been interested in insects of any kind, not for the want of trying, but it`s fine to offer them.
