Hi, I`m not sure what exactly you`re asking? If females are kept alone, then they usually lay infertile eggs, although parthenogenesis has been shown to occur in several varanid species (but not V. salvator), so it`s quite possible lone female Water monitors could lay fertile eggs, it just hasn`t been recorded at this time. (I hope that answers your question)!?
