Posted by: masonmonitors at Thu Sep 22 12:13:06 2011 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by masonmonitors ] I don't feed crickets personally. Like I said, there are other options. We're looking at a monitor that maxes out at four feet(another sign that likely shows they are meant to be fed an invertebrate diet, else I'd imagine they would grow to the larger sizes most other primarily carnivorous monitors grow). Crayfish, crabs, shrimp, larger breeds of roaches(some breeds reach the size of adult mice), large snails, millipedes... it's possible. I know because I do it myself, and would advocate the practice of an invertebrate diet any day - as long as you're willing to go the distance. And if you're insinuating I stick a hawk in an eight foot long, four foot tall cage, I'm sorry but I'm just not going to go through with that. It's not like they don't have predator-prey relationships in captivity. From the monitors perspective, we ourselves are the biggest predators they face on a day to day basis until they decide to get used to us. [ Hide Replies ]
