Hello Gregg,

Many were posted on here in the past. I do not keep track of Savs. So I did not keep a record of who and when.

I do hope yours stays that way, but I doubt it. Again, its a varanid, and once it hits sexual maturity, it will start to darken up and get darker and darker as it ages. I hope yours doesn't.

Also the others that popped up, were not local types either. Varanids do that. They were picked out of shipments of thousands.

I do wish you luck and try and find another. I would contact one of the Fla importers.

As you already know, if you plan on producing those, monitors are very particular. In most cases, its best to raise the animals that you intend to breed together from as young as possible.

ALso, if that animal is 18 inches, its most likely male, as females start to drop eggs at aboutt that size. So you don't have much time to pair that animal up. Again, I wish you all the luck in the world, Cheers
