Baby sav monitor eating dirt when feeding

Skateboarder001 Apr 29, 2005 05:06 PM

I have a baby sav about 4 or 5 inches long on soil sand mix for his substrate. I was watching him eat some chopped pinkies today and noticed that the substrated was sticking to the pinkie pices when he was thrashing them around when he was eating. My question is will the little bit of sand/soil that he ate plug him up or should he be fine?

If your husbandry is close to right, it will pass the dirt and sand.
