    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I prefer not to get clawed up all day and Yes they have claws. In general, flavis are not biters. Thank you for the stupid question.
 
All varanids, tame or not, are generally handled with gloves due to their razor sharp claws.. It is BAD HUSBANDRY to trim a varanids claws, which will tear you to slivers when they simply walk across your flesh not even trying to be aggressive.. If you don't want scars or don't wanna wear gloves them a large varanid is not the animal for you:D.

Also, I'm sure the admins would recommend questions like this be sent direct to the seller or perhaps the boi..

We also recommend letting the seller respond for himself, rather than jumping into an ad with disruptive comments

Go look at videos on YouTube of the reptile whisperer. That woman does not wear gloves and neither does her six year old daughter when handling their monitors. I guess skull tattoos don't make you quite as tough as you think.
 
Chris Smulow if you knew anything about Doug, you'd know he's a vet that's spent more time in combat zones under fire than most. So the next time you want to make sarcastic comments about how tough someone is, maybe you should know who you're speaking about. As for wearing gloves, most of us do because the cuts are annoying and carry a high risk of infection.
For anyone who's actually interested in these animals, I'll happily vouch for them. They're calm, great feeders and beautiful in person. They're well cared for and currently reside in a massive enclosure that allows them to dig, climb and just be monitors. Awesome animals and a great opportunity.

12 year old kids shouldn't be allowed on fauna....
 
Anybody else feel the need to make posts that aren't related to a possible purchase in this thread? Plenty of infractions to go around...
 
Harald, I was actually being "disruptive" as you put it because I sold this exact pair to Doug and know the personality of these animals personally as well as keep/breed over 150 varanids (over 20 species) therefore was just putting in my .2 cents from my experience. I apologize if that offends you and if it's against your rules I'll try to refrain from doing so in the future;D.

@Doug, I'm trying to push a couple sales right now and may be interested in buying/trading (trade if your interested in any of the species I have avail) if they're still avail. You have my number if you wanna hit me up some time.
 
I'm still learning...

I'm looking for V. gouldii gouldii; are these the subspecies of gouldii or panoptes? I did not know this species was sold in the states, that is awesome! Also, are these smaller than V. panoptes?:thumbsup:
