Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I don't think anyone in the states is working with them. Go to varanus.nl, you can get better info there. I know there are a few guys in Australia that breed them, but I don't think exporting is legal.

Armando - He's talking about Varanus varius aka Lace monitor from Australia NOT Varanus salvator from Asia /Indonesia.
This is Varanus varius
The only person I know of in the US who was breeding them was Frank Retes in Arizona but I don't think he's produced a clutch in years. So as of now no one in the US is truly breeding them although there are animals here.
The trade lines from Australia have been closed some 20 years I believe and are in no way being opened any time soon. Zoos can get animals but the time and red tape to actually get them is very lengthy and very costly so Zoos aren't attempting to bring them in.
The few animals I've seen for sale in the US are pricey.
The only forum I know Frank Retes visits anymore is the Kingsnake.com monitor forum so maybe look him up on there and see what his status is. It's been years since I was on that forum so I cannot give an accurate answer.
Good luck.
