When does a savannah stop spraying you with poop? I try handling him but the poop is out of control.

Thanks slot for the help everyone, I mixed up hardboiled egg with ground turkey last night, and he devoured it

Turkey mixed with egg is not an appropriate diet for a savannah monitor that you would like to have live longer than 2-5 years. If you want to feed turkey, use the San Diego Zoo diet and mix it exactly to the original specifications: 2.5 lbs lean ground turkey, 22.5 grams bone meal, 1/2 crushed centrum (regular) tablet. In case you are wondering, Calcium + D3 is not bone meal, reptivite is not Centrum. Insects are best for a little monitor and a variety of whole prey can be used for a hot and hydrated monitor as it gets bigger.

well at least he is eating thats the only thing that needed to get settled really but yes savannah monitors do tend to get more obese than like a black throat would like the diet I have mine on. Savannah's are more sensitive to the diet they get put on and as they begin to grow in size should be let out more to walk and get exercise.

Well, the crickets are floating around his terrarium now. (Not literally) They have been since I got him. If he takes to them, ill be ecstatic but for now the.only thing he's touched is the turkey egg mix, so ill take it.
