Looks great - Nice set up too -

It looks to be a steady animal - there were a load of wild animals imported a few months ago and all came in super condition ... i was amazed that even as two day imported animals at only 6 inches in length that they were in such good condition.

Looks like yours is doing brilliantly.

Thanks all for your comments, i was told that hes probably wild caught,
the place i got him from had two but the other one had a infected jaw
I'm not sure if they sold it but i never saw it again Crying or Very sad

it would of been great to have a pair apart from having no space left in the house.
Anyone know / seen what these are like when there big? Ive seen only
one pair of adults and they seemed very tame, although the guy said the male thinks only for food.
What i wanted to know is........would/could he be as tame as some other monitors? even if he is wild caught, i read that these lizards avoid all contact from humans and hate being handled so would it be better to leave him be or continue slowly?
Thanks.
