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.  |
