Monster VS. Mazuri

zookeepnhippie Aug 07, 2006 10:58 PM

Anyone have a preference one way or the other? Monster says to only feed that, but I dont like that idea. I picked up a can of monster while I wait for more Mazuri to come in.
Its for a hermanns

Thanks

I looked up the info on Monster, and they seemed to have the same basic type of ingredients and feeding instructions as the other pellets I've tried.

I reverse the feeding directions: feed mostly fresh foods (weeds and greens, for example) and use the pellets as an occasional item. I've used Mazuri, RepCal and now Pretty Pets. I think it's better to offer as wide a variety as possible and that using pellets all the time severely cuts down on that variety.

Feed both with alternating standards- I use both to keep variety and nutrition maintained. It's like good dog foods, sometimes you get whats on sale, convience. Mazuri has the history of being used with the Galop torts development, and I have success with Monsters too.
