    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 have been reserching for a monitor lizard to add to our family, and am interested in the Argus, however a Gould's Monitor ( Varanus gouldii ) has caught my attention, but these dont seem available for sale.... are they available in the US? I have seen Argus x Flavi crosses, is that the closest thing available?

Thanks for any input, this is a major commitment to add a monitor of this size to our family, so I want to make sure i do as much reserch as possible.

thanks in advance for any help,

Allen
 
well seeing as how a varanus gouldii monitor originates in australia and exports from there are damn near impossible now, also I dont kno of any breeders in US of that species who breed them so I'd just have to say good luck getting your hands on one of those little guys. and if u do congrats then.
 
I got my answer....Thanks!...

If you are talking about the sand monitor, yes I would have access to it. As of last week end it was still there and had not been sold yet.
 
Sand Monitor

Thank You for the information. I have included a picture of the Monitor. A local shop owner has this Monitor for sale. The animal is listed as a Sand Monitor on the enclosure.
