Im thinking of aquiring a monitor but i dont want one that gets to big and i dont want one too small a maximum lenght of 1 - 1.2 meters would be good. Can anyone tell me what would be suitable and if anyone knows where to get some. Thanks
To be quite serious I would never let a 4yo any where near a monitor.
Do a bit of research on monitors especially their feeding responses and you will understand what I am saying.
A couple of ackies would be good when the kid's a couple of years older, you can just sit and watch them for hours. And if you can keep up with their speed and catch them they aren't all the aggressive and their bites are soft,
He doesn't want ackies he wants a monitor thats 1.2 m long.
I have had plenty of experience with most reptiles i worked in a crocodile farm/zoo for 2 years. There are just alot of monitors i dont know much about thought someone might guide me to a more suitable species i've had my sights on a mangrove monitor for a while now.
What did you start with bruce?[/QUOT
Ackies then laceys but I don't have any small children around to worry about so if anything was to go a bit ferral I only have myself to worry about....or blame lol.
