I know...? I keep telling people: one of the key to successfully keep monitor is feeding them the right food. This applies to other reptiles also. It's common sense...really. I tell them the secret to good monitor diet is rodents...mice and rats. They seem to thrive on that stuff, even the small species. I guess their metabolism is build for eating this kind of food, and so is their body built. I found out a friend that works at the pet store around here also feed his water dragon a good size mouse once a week. When I first saw it, it was a bony and drape little lizard, and now he has nice vibrant color and is very energetic. Water dragons are more carnivorous than people think. That thing pounce on the mice so fast, you'd think it was a monitor lizard. Hehe! Sorry for getting a bit off topic! But I wanted to share what I've seen.
