What Food Can I Feed A Savannah Monitor

Question
I Know They Can Eat Crickets And Pinkies And All That But What Kind Of Vegetables Can I Feed Them?  And Can They Eat Chicken Or Anything Like That I Looked Everywhere To Find Out. I Would Really Appreciate The Help This Is My First Savannah Monitor. I Have Had Bearded Dragons(Currently Have One Now), Iguanas An Snakes.

Answer
Hi Theresa
I have never kept this species of lizard but here are a couple of inks to care sheets that I found that you might find helpful

I did some reading and no where did I find that greens or vegies were included in their diet-they are strickly carnivores

You can however gut load the crickets and worms with greens and veggies for moisture and your monitor will get the benefit of the vitamins from them  that way

Here are the links
