Your guess was a varanid at least, so you got the first part right.

RE: What

Well, here's the twist.

I'm unsure of which one but leaning toward eremius due to the pale spots as well as dark ones, but i would like a definate from someone who would know. It hatched around 2 months ago at the most. It's current SVL is 55 mm.
