Reality, or really not happening.
Hello, I usually use the fauna for classifieds but decided to use forums
To. Little info I'm 15 parents have never let Me Keep a reptile in my life, so I went out and Got a job to pay for all of them myself. I'm in Florida Duh, and I am really into the varanus family. I have a large reptile shop near me and I'm really just wanting a monitor or tegu. the large lizards to me are just amazing. So I know just how hard it is to keep any type of monitor, with large spaces deep substrate correct and large diet and a pissed of 4+ ft lizard if you handle them wrong. But if correctly they are beautiful feisty animals. I have 2 beardies right now a female argentine boa and a jungle carpet. I have experience with 2 large niles I feed clean at shop. And would think about getting one of my own. But the species I am unsure of. I would assume black throat but idk it's a huge thing and come interment to think about. Opinions. |
what living arrangement do you have, bigger monitors require lots of room and if you are in a small apartment or a similar situation simple space could present a problem. Another thing to consider is it takes a lot more to care for a monitor then your beardies and the two snakes. I would say just make sure you do your research first and jump in to anything you arent able to handle.

I think the younger guys are harder to
Care for (they were for me) due to Insect diet. But the meat the miles Put away is ridiculous!!! And I have plenty of room for a medium Monitor cage. I do not live in a apartment. |
monitors need a lot of support they grow very fast when they are kept right so you would be better starting off with smaller ones like akies. even the smaller ones need big enclosures and lots of heat .

I'm not a fan of the ackies, they are monitor in truth but are mini sized lol. Waters miles
Crocs I've all Dealt with are to big for me def not begginer, owner of where I work Said I should go black throat. |
black throats are a good way to go but they get big as you no. get a baby v. ornatus they can come vary tame over a nile but also get very large. and the trust in the monitor is between you and them if you can support the monitor with the care they need you will have a best friend.
