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'll be deploying soon and will have to rehome my Blackthroat.
I think it is female. I believe this becuase sometimes when it poops or sometimes when I piss it off it will extend from either side of it's tail what looks kinda like penis's. But becuase it splits to the side and not extend downward I think it's a female. Correct me if I'm wrong please. It is not easy to find sexing diagrams on these lizards.

sexing black throat monitors
http://www.mampam.com/index.php?opti...d=89&Itemid=60
this gives you a general idea on how to sex them, I know that my 2 males when they stick out their hemipenes they kinda jet out to the sides, my large male's are like 3-4 inches long and they get big in the end. I took my smaller monitor to the hamburg pa reptile show 2 times to see if someone could tell me the sex, they said it was female 2 times b/c they couldn't get him to pop the hemipenes. then one day a couple of months ago just before he too a poop i saw them, they were identical to my large male just a little smaller b/c of size difference. Its very hard to get these creatures sexed when they are smaller, but if you do in fact have a female then id love to take her off your hands. another note when they poop they invert their hemipenes just a little bit not all the way so sometimes they can appear to look like that of a female, Ive noticed when my big guy walks around and passes gas he will stand there and invert the entire thing and let out a foul odor(monitor fart), he also leaves a white mark on a lot of things, I guess its his way of marking his territory, I do not know if the females do this, I haven't seen my smaller one ever mark anything. Ive been really looking for a solid guide online for sexing monitors but haven't really had any success. Some pictures of the female anatomy would be great. I think I'm actually gonna start a new post to see if it brings up a definitive pictures.
