Hi everyone,
I currently have a set-up with two juvenile Ridge-Tailed Monitors, both 11 weeks old. One has no issues, however the other one is extremely skittish, does not bask, rarely comes out to eat and just sits in her log all day. When I first got her she seemed more eager to eat and come out for feeding but that has changed, she also avoids the other monitor in the enclosure.
Is there anything I can do to encourage her to eat/bask more or is it just a matter of waiting for her to settle into her new environment?
