I'm not really sure what yo say about the diet. Our monitor has thrived off of insects with an occasional pinkie (he's still young), though I have heard of others that use turkey as well.

I'm not certain of the lethargy you are seeing. Our Sav was lethargic when we bought it, but it was also underweight and likely near to death. We bought Smaug to save him, and we've accomplished that.

I certainly hope it's not some health issue that's causing the lethargy in your new sav though.
