Feeding a Dumeril Monitor
She is such a sweetheart. I usually pet her on the head after feeding her shrimp. She likes to climb on me like a tree, too.

Re: Feeding a Dumeril Monitor
Big George, I pop the sharp thing on the shrimps head off and then feed them. I don't cook them or anything. If any shrimp in my house get cooked, I am eating them. HAHA

The red head is cool, but nature made them this way for a reason. I wonder more why the babies have red heads.

Re: Feeding a Dumeril Monitor
Maybe it is to appear as poisonous or something else? I have no idea
