True USCBB '20 Argus Monitor (Varanus panoptes horni), believed male. Aprox. 24" in total length. Full tail, full claws, completely impeccable animal.
This is not a traumatized WC import. This is the real deal: raised under hi-heat, whole prey diet, deep sandy loam soil substrate (24"+), etc. A beautiful animal, one of the best I've ever seen... when he isn't stained and dusty! Photos do not do him justice.
If your intentions are to slap him in a fish tank or you are seeking a 'placid pet', look elsewhere. If continued to be kept well, will easily hit 3.5'-4' and breed this year. This is a monitor that acts like a monitor. Not cold and lethargic. He is tractable, exciting and a joy to keep for any true Varanus enthusiast.
Sold.
Trades for white throats, odds and ends lizards, female argus, other monitors, anolis. etc.
