Went to a pet shop yesterday, just to have a nose around and see what stock they had in. I wasnt going to buy anything as my breeding group of Beardies take up alot of my time, but saw this little guy and fell in love.

I appoligise about the picture quality but my didgi cam is appalling. Sad

It also completely washed out his colour as hes very terracotta.

Anyway heres a pic:

I just did the same, I bought a group of 6 hatchlings over the weekend. Will post pictures later. They are amazing! They are my first monitors. Defenitely not the last.

Good luck with him, they certainly are entertaining lizards to keep.

Paulv, which monitors did you buy? are Australian monitors easy to buy in S.Africa?

I bought the V Acanthurus.

They are new here, I know of 3 other people keeping them and I have bought the first Captive bred specimens in the country. That should change in the next few years.

Paulv, youve got some pretty ones there. The colours of mine are slightly different though, with terracotta running down the spine fading into red at the sides.

Dont you need a liecence to keep them is SA?

Scott W, They really are so entertaining to watch, you can read about their behavior and get a good idea as to what to expect but to see them going about their day is so amusing Laughing
