Re: Roaches, crickets, worms and confusion, oh my

I can not remember off the top of my head but in one of the Biawak quarterlys it says that in one of the studies involving 100+ Ackies beetles,locusts, roaches, small lizards are their main diet... Any thoughts on that?

That's exactly what I read, and I think it's on Lizard Kings too if I recall correctly.

I also think it is on lizard kings.
Monitors eat lizards and other monitors. Ackies search the roack crevices to over power smaller lizards and any bugs they can get. Imagine that they would ground and pound small snakes as well.

Did you see the thread on RepticZ where someone wanted to provide an "all natural" diet to an Argus?

People get some silly ideas.
