Kane is 30+ inches.
the only small thing I can feed are superworm beetles. HE won't eat the superworms, mealworms, or waxworms. I can feed crickets but it takes up to 40 a day of those to fill his stomach. He eats big things, such as hornworms, nightcrawlers, mice once in a while, the occasional nibble of veggies, and a sliver of lean turkey(low sodium). Most of the food I can feed on a plate. Is it okay for a lizard to prefer items that are rather large instead of the normal several smaller things? BTW, Kane crushes whatever is in his mouth. I have quite the gutstains on my cage doors from the food items being splattered.
