Yes actually, exactly like it. Here is why. Some babies like cold milk, some do not, it was always thought that was harmful to babies when in reality some prefer it and is of no harm. Most of my babies (hatchlings and adults) eat cold milk. Some do not, I have many snakes that will not eat a rodent untill it is up to room temps, some won't eat dead period, so it is a game we play.



When speaking monitors, most all, actually, all of them will eat cold, some will leave it untill it warms up or untill they are ready to eat it this is the same from hatchlings to adults although the former get bugs mostly. I don't force them to do anything, I drop food in that is cold, they want it, they take it, they dont want it, they wait till later. Simple. The ramifications? None thus far, prolly becuase they are kept hot and have no problem heating the food to digest it with whats available to them.



Cheers,

Mike.
