Hey guys! I'm seriously thinking about getting myself a varanus prasinus Very Happy I have read up lots about them and kept v. exanthematicus[i] before. Just wondering if any one else on here keeps them and also if you've got pics of your enclosures to give me some ideas what to make Smile

Any hands on advice on keeping these beautiful creatures greatly received! Thanx!! Wink

While having prior monitor experience is a good prerequisite for members of the V. prasinus complex, I would also suggest having experience in acclimating humid-forest dwelling reptiles, as much of the acclimation process for WC individuals are much the same, just mix in the dietary and temperature requirements of Varanus.
