Sav Juvenile for Adoption

Male Savanna Monitor available for adoption.
Must prove knowledge and commitment.
Serious inquirys only please.
You pay for shipping.
We live in Montana

My interest changed about a year ago towards a preference for snakes. I have limited time and especially limited space. I have juvenile snakes coming up that will need larger enclosures soon. I want to allot the limited space to them as I plan on breeding next spring.

I have had him since he was a squat, plump hatchling 03.29.04
Came in weighing 29 grams
Weighs 1.3 KG today. 14" SVL His tail is intact.

Aggressive appetite.
I feed mice, quail chicks, dog/cat food, raw beef/lamb.
Fed dusted insects when small. I use Parazap.

Has been wormed with Panacur and Flagyl.

UVB: originally via florescent bulbs. Mercury Vapor for the past 3 months. Unfiltered sunlight for portions of some days in the summer.

Temperament: insecure. Hisses and tries to escape. Not inclined to lunge and bite. Needs handling to calm him down. He has been on a harness--always whenever outside.

Corey, I need to know a few things.

What kind of set up do you have and is it ready?
Outline the husbandry.
Do you own or rent?
Are you able to pay the shipping, I doubt it will be less than $50?
Where do you live?

hey, my name is Matt, am willing to adopt your Sav monitor, i have a baby savannah monitor, a nile monitor, and a large iguana. but these animals are the ones that i own, i work at www.partypets.com where we have over 250 different reptiles, including a couple savannah monitors, so i do have experience with these animals. i breed my own mice, and i can get any medicine nessesary to cure any kind of health issue that the monitor might have. am also willing to pay the $50 for the shipping, please consider me for adoption, the savanna will go to a good home with me, i would send you updates of him as often as you ask for. you can check out the website of the place i work at www.partypets.com, please email me with an answer at [email protected] thank you.

Matt, I sent you an email.

I have had some responses, most sounded very interested. But, when given the shipping quote I never heard from any of these people again. As stated in my initial post, shipping is to be paid by the adopting party.

A change in circumstances has made it necessary that I winnow down my "dependent" load. I want him to have a good home. I am not looking to make any money.

Any takers on him ?
if not .. a shot in the dark .. but can you ship to Canada . .I have 6 sav's currently included in that is a breeding pair .. I have had most of my sav's for well over a year.

probably cant ship to Canada but never hurts to ask right ..

This animal has been sold and is no longer available.
