Haven't tried it personally but most of the people iv spoken to say its crap and a lot of varanids wont touch it.

Its more or less an expensive can of dog food if you ask me.Tried it out of curiosity(my monitors are all on whole prey items,mice,rats,any other rodent,smelts,herring,quails),my argus ate it(they eat anything!) thats about it,but reading the ingrediants on the label well...your better off feeding whole prey.

Wouldnt feed it to my monitor TBH. Processed food and reptiles dont mix IMO. Feed a vaired diet of mice/chicks/rats/off cuts of raw meat/boiled egg whites as well as a viarety of creepy crawleys Smile

Thanks Guys.
didn't think it would be much good, just thought of trying it as a standby or just for something different.

testdrive, do your Argus eat crickets & locust? my Argus doesn't seem to bother with them anymore.
