Well Skip, I definately appreciate the fact that you were not rude in any way with your reply. People like you always get a much more attentive group of students when passing on your knowledge. I hope you can understand my reason for giving the advice I did. If it were my baby sav I would want to get some reserves on the little guy fast and I would not want to cause any harm in the process. Having specialized digestive systems I dont think that would happen but when you mention digestive system it makes me wonder if they might get the runs from such an easily digestable meal. I guess thats possible and if I am ever faced with a problem like this I will remember your reply.

So I now have a question. Is there a better alternative if you want to get some reserves on a thin baby fast? What about things like pheonix worms and silks? Very high in nutrients, protein and calcium and one of the very best foods for certain other lizards. Would this work the same way? Or is something with an exoskeleton required? Do they need more keratin?
