Mice of the appropriate size is the usual choice once a monitor has outgrown insects. Depending on the monitors size start with either pinkies or fuzzies and work your way up. What kind of monitor is it?

BTW Im sure the baby iguana didnt appreciate being the bait to see if the monitor is hungry. Not really the best idea.

Savannahs are not very picky. Most will take dead prey no problem. Either freshly killed or thawed they generally could care less as long as they get to eat.
