I have a 3 ft Savannah Monitor and a 2 ft Black rough neck monitor. I'm at a loss on whatelse they can eat. I've gotten alot of different answers. Our savannah is primarily mice and rats and our brn is on mice, baby rats, crickets and worms. He refuses to eat super worms, he prefers the slimy worms, I just can't think of what there called.

I also don't know how much to feed. when winter was over our savannah was so hungry. He could eat 6 mice and then he'd kill but not eat it. So I figured that would do him. And it did for 2 days, so now it's like every two days he eats about 5 of them. Our BRN eats that way too, even through the winter. Is this normal??

Thanks
