Hi All
Pretty keen on this small species - does anyone currently keep or know much about their keeping arrangements, e.g. general husbandry & breeding?
Greatly appreciated.

Pretty expensive, about $1000 a pop from what I've seen. I think the Storrs or Pygmy mulga monitors are just as good looking for much cheaper.

You shouldn't have much trouble finding hatchies for $800 this season. I've seen as low as $600 advertised..

They are impressive critters, even more so when you find the incredibly fierce ones in the wild... A truly ferocious animal!
