Hi everybody,
I don't see too much talk about monitors on here. I just bought a baby mangrove monitor (he/she is so adorable) I know it won't stay small and adorable though. I have been varying his/her diet for the couple of weeks I have had him/ her. This isn't my first lizard so I did do my researchbefore buying it. What is the best way to help it with it's skitishness when holding so hopefully when it gets big It will be at least somewhat tame, since when it gets big I would like to let it roam around the house to get exercise occassionally? Sometimes he/she let's me hold him/her without trying to escape and others it trys to get away. He/she likes me to hold him/her when feeding though.
