"Welcome to Regal Reptiles. Now we got a nice healthy black throat monitors picked out we brought them home and we have them all set up in their enclosure. Now we're going to feed them and we're also going to give them vitamins reptiles eat in the captivity. They eat crickets and worms and sometimes we give the mice. But we want to give them some variety so this is mineral and this has full spectrum of vitamins and full spectrum of minerals, it has calcium, it has D3, zinc and has lots of other minerals that helps the animals grow nice and strong have strong bones. This is just straight up calcium with no D3. In case your animals getting too much D3 you can give them that and we're going to feed them crickets, we are going to give them live crickets at our local pet store. Or you can order them on the internet and then also some frozen mice which is a delicatessen with monitor lizards; they love frozen mice. These frozen mice we put some vitamins right on top already and also worms. We have some nice soup worms with some vitamins on them. We're going to put them inside the enclosure and the monitors will eat the worms right out of the bowl and we're going to do some feeding next."
