I was doing a basic health check today so while I had one out I thought it would be a good time to take some photos. It's amazing they are so calm when handled but the slightest hint of food and it's complete different story, believe me you've never seen a food response like it. If you've ever kept argus then these guys make them look like angels when feeding. Because of the strong food orientation I house them all separately to avoid serious injuries to one another.

They're near abouts, I can't really see them getting much bigger.

No, the females are a little younger than the males so hopefully in time they will be ready.

Great monitors - they really are amazing looking, up with the giganteus in my opinion

I had a chomp over a year ago, for something with a relatively small head they have quite a bite although as soon as it new my finger wasn't food it let go straight away, but still all the hairs on my body stood erect like an electric shock. Shocked
